Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The description says the fragrance is not strongly floral, so aroma is restrained despite the junmai ginjo label. Yamahai brewing and acidity of 1.7 add body and umami, while SMV +4 keeps it leaning dry.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
For those drinking a Fukuchitose yamahai (traditional yeast-starter method) sake for the first time, the one I would most recommend is this Junmai Ginjo. It is also where many people eventually arrive after drinking for a long time. In one phrase, that is the kind of sake it is. It does not have a particularly vivid aroma, but it is a sake that stays by your side. It does not clash with any dish and pairs well with a wide range of food.
