- Flavor: The palate is characterized by a rich, full-bodied and complex taste featuring intense umami and savory notes. Reviewers mention an initial earthy taste, sometimes with hints of nuts and spice.
- Finish: True to its "super dry" name, it has a distinguishing acidity that leads to a very sharp, crisp, and clean finish.
- Serving Temperature: This versatile sake can be enjoyed at various temperatures. It is very good when served chilled or at room temperature, and some reviewers also found it excellent when gently warmed.
