Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The kimoto brewing, heavy lees content, and the mellow, soft texture described point to a full, rich body. The koji aroma is present but restrained with no ginjo-style fruitiness, placing this in the jun type with moderate-to-high sweetness.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
Shizenshu Nigori Kimoto brewing (traditional yeast-starter method), Mutenka (no added yeast), using kuratsuki yeast (yeast native to the brewery) The rich moromi from natural (Shizenshu) brewing is ground in traditional stone mills, resulting in a pure white nigori sake. It has plenty of sediment and a mellow, soft texture, with a gentle mouthfeel like light, powdery snow. The koji aroma is generous, and the finish carries a subtle kimoto acidity. The appeal of natural rice comes through strongly.
