Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The 65% polishing junmai with acidity 1.5, SMV +3, and a description of rich umami with pleasant acidity points to a full, moderately dry profile. The faint banana-like aroma keeps it restrained, placing it in the jun quadrant.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
