The color is faintly yellow because this Japanese Sake is not filtered. The flavor is close to fresh lemon. When you drop it in your mouth, you will find the freshness and tiny sparkling bubbles stimulate your mouth. It is sweet, but bitter. The bitterness balances all tastes. The finish is long and comfortable. This Japanese Sake is named after the place where the brewery is located and the finish. Si comes from the place. Sora means sky. When you drink it, we felt as if you would float and drift in sky.
