Flavor profile Jun-shu
Jun-shu — rich and umami-driven
The 65% polishing ratio, 1.6 acidity and the description of a calm, restrained aroma with firm body point to a rich, understated junmai. The stated dryness and soft mouthfeel suggest a mildly dry profile.

About
The good-quality rice and water all come from the natural environment of Aso. This junmai sake has a calm flavor with a moderate aroma lying beneath, and a restrained strength and dryness that give way to a pleasantly soft mouthfeel. It pairs well with everyday meals and is recommended chilled or warmed to lukewarm (nurukan, lightly warmed sake).
