Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The description says ginjo aroma and rich umami are restrained, while smooth umami and moderate acidity give a mid-weight body, so aroma is low. SMV +3 and acidity 1.6 point to a slightly dry, balanced sweetness.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
Because the food is the star, this sake plays a supporting role. Its floral ginjo aroma and rich umami are kept restrained, while a soft palate, smooth umami and a pleasant acidity give it a balanced character that stays easy to drink throughout a meal. As a Tokubetsu Junmai, it is brewed in small batches on par with daiginjo batches, using a total of 600 kg of rice.
