Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven

The 60% polishing ratio, SMV +2 and the description of slightly dry yet rich, with restrained acidity, point to a rice-umami-led junmai. Aroma is subdued while body is full, placing it in the jun quadrant.

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

About

The bottle is wrapped in bamboo sheath (except the 300 ml bottle). For a junmai sake, its acidity is not strong, and the umami of the rice comes through well.
