Flavor profile Kun-shu
Kun-shu — aromatic and light
The 55% polishing ratio and the fruity, gentle aroma described in the text place the aroma slightly above center. The moderate acidity of 1.6 and crisp finish suggest a light body, while the SMV of 1 to 2 and soft umami point to a mildly sweet impression.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
Made with the proprietary sake rice "Hohai," this junmai sake uses koji rice (the rice used to cultivate koji mold) polished to 55% and kake rice (the rice added to the fermentation mash) polished to 70%. Its gentle, refined aroma and clean drinking quality are retained, while fruity, soft umami and a pleasant touch of acidity spread across the palate. A light, crisp body, a clean finish (kire) and a pleasing lingering aftertaste follow. Affordable, delicious and easy to remember, this sake ticks all three boxes. Its subtle aroma and gentle flavor make it an ideal sake for evening drinking at home, one that does not tire the palate. [Available for limited release in February, May, August and November]
