Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
Despite the junmai ginjo designation, the description emphasizes a distinctive rice character rather than fruity or floral aromas, pointing to restrained aroma with fuller, savory body. Sweetness is estimated as moderate from the junmai style and the rice's unusual, pronounced flavor.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
