Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
The 50% polishing ratio and daiginjo classification suggest some aroma, while the description of aged, deep flavor and warm serving points to a fuller, mature juku profile. SMV +4 and 15% alcohol indicate a near-neutral, slightly dry sweetness.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
