The described citrus aroma and Kyokai No.901 yeast point to a fairly aromatic profile. SMV +4, acidity 1.7 and 50% polishing suggest a soft sweetness with a light, crisp, clean finish, placing it in the kun quadrant.

About

Available in a five-color lineup, the Shu Label (vermilion), once limited to export, has returned with a refreshed look. For the 2020-21 season, the sake underwent some minor changes, including the use of Kyokai No. 901 yeast, which produces a full, rich aroma. Vibrant citrus aromas and a gentle sweetness are followed by a refreshing finish with a clean, pleasant aftertaste.
