Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
A 50% polished daiginjo with a melon and banana-like sweet aroma points to high aroma, while the koshu attribute and the soft, plump umami described in the text add modest body. SMV +5 with low acidity of 1.2 gives a gently sweet impression with a rounded, medium-rich texture.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
Our Daiginjo is aged for about five years, but this one is bottled straight after brewing, capturing a fresh, lively, bright and straightforward Daiginjo style. It offers a sweet, gentle aroma reminiscent of melon and banana, along with a soft, plump umami that comes from high-quality sake rice.
