The text describes a dry, clean, fruity special junmai daiginjo, and the 40% polishing ratio and SMV +5 support a high aroma with a light body. The 17.5% alcohol adds some richness, so the profile sits in the aromatic-light kun quadrant.

About

Over this period, delicious aromas build up beyond the sake's basic components. As the flavor and aroma merge into one, the result is Shukinde Noshiro, a dry, clean, and fruity special ginjo sake. The bottle is also presented in a box made of Akita cedar (Akita sugi), and care was taken with the label as well.
