Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
A 55% polished junmai ginjo at 16% alcohol with nama and genshu traits; the text cites violet and white peach aromas, a lingering sweetness and gas. SMV +4 and acidity 1.5 keep it moderately dry, so sweetness is mid-low, while the full, umami-rich body places it in the juku quadrant.

About
Exclusive to designated retailers. Seasonal release from January. A seasonal namazake (unpasteurized sake) from Shichida, in the junmai ginjo style. Gentle notes of violet and white peach give it a fragrance, and a sweetness lingers on the palate along with a lively effervescence. As is typical of a namazake, it has a firm, substantial character.
