Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

The text describes a gentle aroma with strong umami, and the 60% polishing ratio, 17% alcohol and origarami texture point to a rich, rice-forward junmai. SMV +4 keeps sweetness moderate and slightly on the dry side.

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

About

When moromi (fermentation mash) is placed in sake bags and pressed, fine rice powder escaping through the weave of the bags mixes into the pressed sake, giving it a slightly hazy, misty appearance. This is a style that lets you fully taste the flavor of the moromi. The aroma is gentle, but the umami that spreads on the palate when you take a sip is genuine.
