Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
A 70% polished junmai genshu with SMV +7 and acidity 1.7 reads as dry with restrained aroma. The description's strong koku and the 17-18% alcohol point to a full, rich body.

About
Beneath its dry, rugged edge lies a crisp, clean finish that keeps each sip inviting, while the robust body typical of genshu (undiluted sake) adds depth and makes it a satisfying drink to savor. Served chilled, it becomes even crisper and lighter, with a refreshing finish. Warmed to lukewarm (nurukan), the umami increases and the flavor turns rounder and fuller. The character shifts with temperature.
