Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The SMV of -3, 58% polishing and the description of a concentrated, rice-umami 旨口 style point to restrained aroma and a full body. The sweet-leaning SMV suggests moderate sweetness, tempered by the described acidity and gas that give a crisp finish.

About
A sake that showcases the distinctive presence of rice umami for which Kamikokoro is known, a brewery whose "Kome Umakuchi Kura" (rice-umami-rich brewery) identity shapes its style. This rich, full-bodied, umami-forward sake is given a crisp, clean drinking character by raising its acidity and retaining some gas, resulting in a clean finish (kire) that is refreshing on the palate. Pay attention to the pleasant "pon" sound when the bottle is opened.
