[What is rich, dry sake?]
This rich, dry sake is characterized by its rich rice flavor, complexity, and a crisp aftertaste . The fascinating style, which is hard to escape from once you've become hooked, has captivated many sake connoisseurs .

[How to distinguish between rich and dry sake]
The quickest way to tell if a sake is dry is to decipher the label and descriptions! The label may say "dry" or "rich," but unfortunately, in many cases there is no indication of this. In such cases, check the values ​​for 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 higher the number, the richer the taste; the lower the number, the lighter the taste.
- Amino acid content: The higher the number, the richer the flavor; the lower the number, the lighter the flavor.

If we were to judge based on these numbers, a rich, dry sake would have a high + (plus) value on the sake meter scale, and high acidity and amino acid content . However, the world of sake involves many different elements, such as aroma and taste, so 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?
