Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The honjozo style, 70% polishing, SMV +4 and the description of a dry style that expresses rice umami point to restrained aroma, a moderately full rice-driven body and low sweetness.

About
A small amount of brewer's alcohol is added. While fully showcasing the umami of the rice, it has a dry character that never becomes overly sweet.
