Flavor profile Juku-shu
Juku-shu — aromatic and full-bodied, including aged sake
The 55% polishing junmai ginjo with SMV +4 and high acidity 2.3 points to a dry, moderately aromatic profile, while yamahai adds some fullness. The text's chilled, fresh, non-aged style suggests a clean character with a restrained richness.

About
Yamahai (a traditional yeast-starter method) sake on the market is generally enjoyed warmed (kan). However, many people around me, including myself, find its matured, aged (oineta) aroma and the sharp, nose-prickling alcohol sensation hard to enjoy. For that reason, we deliberately brewed this sake under the theme of a fresh yamahai to be enjoyed chilled.
