Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake

DrySweet
LightFull

The 55% polish junmai ginjo specification and 17% genshu strength suggest a moderately aromatic, full-bodied profile, while the description of a delicate, soft texture tempers the body. Aroma is moderate and sweetness mild, placing it near the juku area with a soft finish.

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

About

This namazume genshu (unpasteurized, undiluted sake) has an alcohol content of 17%, yet its soft, mellow flavor does not make the alcohol strength noticeable. (Our hiyaoroshi (autumn-released sake) is bottled from tanks in good condition, so the same type of hiyaoroshi is not necessarily bottled every year. Shipping begins in late September.)
