Flavor profile Kun-shu
Kun-shu — aromatic and light
The brewery text's floral, pear-and-almond aroma and sense of depth, together with the 27% polishing ratio, SMV +5 and acidity of 1.6, point to a highly aromatic daiginjo that is light yet has some substance. Sweetness is low given the dry SMV, and body sits slightly on the light side of the map.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
Pairs well with meat dishes such as sukiyaki, steak, and lamb, as well as with eel and vinegared dishes (sunomono). It also pairs exceptionally well with white-mold and blue-veined cheeses.
Highly praised by Robert Parker, the renowned wine critic.
