[What is light, dry sake?]
Light, dry sake is characterized by its refreshing taste and sharpness , and is sometimes described as clean, refreshing, and mild.
It is loved by many people, from beginners to advanced drinkers, because it is relatively easy to drink and pairs well with any type of food.

[Key points for distinguishing light, dry sake]
The quickest way to tell if a sake is dry is to decipher the label and descriptions!
The label may state "dry" or "light," but unfortunately, in many cases there is no such indication. When doing so, be sure to check the sake meter value, acidity, and amino acid content.

[Brief explanation of each item]
・Sake meter value: The more positive the number, the drier the sake, and the more negative the number, the sweeter the sake.
- Acidity: The lower the number, the lighter the taste; the higher the number, the richer the taste.
- Amino acid content: The lower the number, the cleaner the taste; the higher the number, the richer the flavor.

If we judge based on these numbers, light, dry sake has a high + (plus) value for Sake Meter and low acidity and amino acid content . However, the world of sake involves many different factors, such as aroma and taste, and it is true that it cannot be judged by numbers alone.

There are no numerical values ​​listed, so I don't know./I like dry sake, but there are so many types that I can't choose./I don't usually drink sake, so which one should I choose?
In times like these, leave it to Isobe Liquor Store!
