Kun-shu — aromatic and light
A 45% polishing ratio, SMV +5 and moderate acidity of 1.5 point to a light, slightly dry style. The description's gentle aroma and polished rice umami add a modest richness and aromatic lift.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
This is a somewhat unusual sake, sealed with the same cork stopper used for wine. Enjoy the umami of finely polished rice and the gentle aroma of Kumamoto yeast. It is also interesting to compare it with the Daiginjo Excel, which likewise uses a cork stopper.
