Medium bodied and nicely aromatic with notes of lemon and lime. The "50" refers to the polishing ratio, meaning that half the rice is milled away before brewing. The brewery refers to this sake as "adult-like" or "mature". It's definitely got depth to it and letting some air into it shows a range of textures, over time. Fuji is a small brewery that makes crowd-pleasing, easy drinking sake that still pack in depth and nuance. 100% Yamada Nishiki rice - And to boot, Shimane, home of Fuji Brewery, is the birthplace of Yamada Nishiki. Boom.
