Flavor profile Kun-shu
Kun-shu — aromatic and light
The junmai ginjo brewing and the fresh, lively character of an unpasteurized genshu point to a fairly aromatic profile. The undiluted body gives some richness, but the light filtering and fresh finish keep the overall body balanced and slightly light, with a gentle sweetness.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
A fresh sake that is simply filtered after pressing (jōsō) to remove sediment. It pairs well with the local ingredients of the Lake Country (kokoku), such as simmered small ayu (sweetfish), salt-grilled ayu, and sashimi of biwamasu (Lake Biwa trout).
