The SMV of -16, the sweet description and the 21% alcohol of this undiluted genshu point to a dense, sweet, rich profile with restrained, rice-led aroma. The acidity of 1.7 adds some structure to the thick texture.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
