Yokikana is a great example of this style

this brew wins the balance battle between sweetness and high working acidity
brown rice and honey flavors that dance with an underlying umami kiss and pickled plum finish
The nose on this classic Junmai Ginjo is a cool collection of white flowers
Matsunotsukasa Kimoto Junmai Size:720ml Yokikana is a great exampleThe nose on this traditionally made pole rammed sake is a unique collection of pecan pie, butter popcorn, rum raisin, nuts, and ocean water aromas.

Smooth, slick, silky, creamy, and medium bodied there is definitely an acidic play in action that balances out the rice tones of the brew. Look for grapefruit, unripe pear, stone fruits, with minerality and some tantalizing shibumi
