Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The yamahai junmai style, 80% polishing, three-year aging, and the text's emphasis on rich body, koku and lactic acid point to a restrained aroma with a full, dense body. Sweetness is moderate, softened by the rounded mellow character of the aged rice.
