Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The description's terms mellow, rich in umami and matured, together with the 60% polished honjozo and SMV +3, point to restrained aroma and a full, savory body. Sweetness is moderate, with a slightly dry SMV balancing the mellowness.

About
New sake pressed in the bitter cold of winter, when the Akagi oroshi wind blows, is pasteurized in early spring and rests in a cool brewery through the hot summer, deepening its maturity. Now, as the autumn breeze begins to blow, it is time for it to awaken. Mellow and rich in umami, this well-aged hiyaoroshi is one we hope you will savor.
