Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The 59% polishing, junmai nama style, and the text's dry, velvety, full-bodied character point to restrained aroma, fuller body, and low sweetness. The crisp finish places it in the jun category.

About
This is the unpasteurized (namazake) version of junmai sake. Freshness, a melting touch, and a moderately substantial, satisfying body. When young, it has a wild, lively energy. As it matures, it becomes rich and mellow. Its base is dry, so it finishes sharply and cleanly without lingering. It is best served chilled, but when warmed to a lukewarm temperature, it reveals an even more melting mouthfeel, which is enjoyable.
