Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake

DrySweet
LightFull

A 70% polishing ratio, acidity of 1.7 and 16.5% alcohol point to a full body, and the description's rich aroma, abundant umami, koku and clean finish place it in the juku style. Aroma is rice-led rather than fruity, and sweetness reads as mellow and moderate.

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

About

The moment it touches the palate, a rich aroma swells, drawing out the abundant flavor of the rice. The substantial umami, combined with acidity and pungency, spreads in layers across the mouth and unfolds into an even mellower richness. A vivid, clean finish leaves an elegant and pleasant aftertaste.
