Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

DrySweet
LightFull

As a futsushu with restrained aroma, the yamahai brewing and the description's emphasis on umami and koku point to a full, rich body. An SMV of +6 and moderate acidity suggest a dry-leaning finish with only mild sweetness.

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

About

A carefully crafted sake made with yamahai shubo (a yeast starter prepared by the traditional yamahai method). It offers a broad range of umami and richness, along with a gentle acidity felt as it goes down the throat, and these elements harmonize well together.
