Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The junmai designation, 60% polishing ratio, and the pleasant sweetness of the nigori with a lively acidity that pops on the palate point to a restrained, rice-led aroma and a sweet, textured body. The sparkling nigori character keeps the overall weight moderate.
