Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

The 55% polished junmai and the description's focus on drawing out rice umami and a crisp finish point to a restrained aroma, a fuller umami-led body and only mild sweetness. This places it in the jun (rich, restrained) quadrant.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About
