Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

The description of rich, umami-forward body combined with SMV 11 and acidity 2.1 points to a full-bodied, very dry junmai. The 75% polishing and absence of ginjo character keep aroma restrained, placing it in the jun quadrant.

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

About

With a sake meter value (SMV) of +10, this very dry junmai sake is made for lovers of dry sake. Although it is a junmai sake, we aimed for a bottle that is good value and easy to enjoy every day. The rice is deliberately not polished very much, yet unwanted off-flavors are kept out. It is not a trendy style, but it is a sake that keeps drawing you back and never gets tiresome. An ideal bottle for everyday evening drinking at home.
