Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
A 70% polished junmai with SMV +3 points to a restrained aroma and a mellow, rich body, which the description of deep flavor and warmed serving reinforces. Sweetness sits near the middle, leaning slightly dry.

About
For those who love cats and sake above all, this is a sake to enjoy. (Of course, anyone who is of legal drinking age in Japan, 20 or older, is welcome!) The president, a self-described cat lover who believes cats are the cutest creatures and sake is the most delicious drink, was determined to bring this product to market with an extraordinary passion. Cats protect the sake's ingredients from rats, and they bring comfort and affection to people. Sake and cats both draw people together through that bond. These three elements are expressed on the label. Beyond the shape of the label, bring it to your nose... The sake itself is serious and well made, with no shortcuts. The entire batch is junmai sake. Warming it to a temperature that feels like holding a cat (a water-bath warming to about 45°C is recommended) is also a delight.
