Flavor profile So-shu
So-shu — clean and light
The very negative SMV (-85 to -70) and acidity of 7 create a distinctly sweet-sour profile, and the low 7.5-7.9% alcohol keeps the body light. Aroma is restrained, placing this junmai in the light, sweet-leaning so zone.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
This Junmai sake has a low alcohol content, about half that of a typical sake, so it can be enjoyed by people who are sensitive to alcohol and by women. The name is a coined term meaning "rice wine" in French. The 7 in the name indicates the alcohol content.
