Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
Apple yeast, 45% polishing daiginjo brewing, and the described rich, well-developed flavor point to a pronounced fruity aroma with good fullness. SMV +3 and acidity 1.4 suggest a soft, mildly sweet profile.

About
Koji making has the greatest influence on the taste of the sake, and we carry it out carefully, one piece at a time, using a traditional tool called the kojibuta (koji trays). For daiginjo, koji making typically takes about 48 hours. We spend more than 52 hours on it, finishing a rich, full-bodied sake with well-developed flavor.
