Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The SMV of +3 and acidity of 1.8 with 70% polishing point to a dry, full-bodied junmai, and the description of honey-like richness with acidity forming the backbone confirms that. Aroma is restrained while body and richness are high, placing it in the jun quadrant.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
It has a rich, honey-like depth and an aroma that seeps into the mucous membranes deep inside the nose. Its structure is built on acidity, giving it a full-bodied character. You may not think 'this is delicious!' after the first cup, but with each second and third cup its merits become clearer, and before long you may find it hard to stop. If I were to compare it to a person, it is not a handsome man who wins hearts at first sight, but he is deeply caring, warm-hearted, and reliable. I just like him. That is the kind of bottle this sake is.
