Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
The description of a striking, floral ginjo aroma and a fuller, well-structured palate from junmai rice points to a high aroma and slightly full body, placing it in juku. SMV -1 with moderate acidity (1.5) suggests mild sweetness and medium richness.

About
Once made as junmai, sake gains a step more depth. What was bright and light acquires strength and complexity. So too does daiginjo. The aroma rises crisply and elegantly, a vivid and striking ginjo aroma. The palate likewise conveys abundant refinement, soft yet with firm, well-developed flavor. The dignity of daiginjo unfolds richly and luxuriously, and the quiet finish lingers pleasantly.
