Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
The 60% polished junmai ginjo, with cellar aging described as mellow and crisp, points to a juku profile with moderate aroma and fuller umami. SMV +5 and acidity 1.5 suggest a dry-leaning finish with only light sweetness.

About
Making full use of the umami of rice, this junmai ginjo sake is carefully brewed using traditional techniques and then matured slowly within the brewery. Mellow yet clean on the finish, it has a character unlike any other, best described as "hyohyo" (carefree and unconventional). It can be enjoyed chilled or warmed.
