Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

An SMV of +6, acidity of 1.7 and the text's 'firmly dry' and 'sharp finish' point to a restrained, dry profile. The rice umami and moderate acidity give it a savory, medium-full body, placing it in the jun quadrant.

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

About

A Junmai sake brewed with rice grown in Hyogo Prefecture. Firmly dry, it has a clean finish when served chilled, and when warmed (kan) it opens into gently spreading rice umami with a well-judged acidity. It is a staple of the Chikusen lineup.
