Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
Junmai daiginjo at 50% polishing with SMV +5 and the description's firm white-wine acidity and crisp finish suggest a dry profile with moderate aroma. Long low-temperature aging for umami gives a fuller, mature body, placing it in the juku quadrant.

About
Taste: A firm acidity reminiscent of a premium white wine. Recommended pairing: Serve in a slightly larger white wine glass with robust shellfish such as oysters. Yamadaho is a pure-line variety that has never been crossed with other varieties. It is the mother variety of Yamada Nishiki and is known as the rarest and most precious of sake rices, often called the legendary rice. A firm acidity spreads across the palate and the finish remains clean as it flows through. The sake is aged at low temperature for more than one and a half years to draw out its umami. It is a high-quality sake that is also listed at a starred restaurant in France. Release period: July through year-end. Notes: Yamadaho is written as the 'mother' variety of Yamada Nishiki in the source; the parent relationship is kept as stated.
