So-shu — clean and light
The SMV of +7, low acidity of 1.2 and 65% polishing, together with the brewery's descriptions of a dry, clean, refreshing profile with gentle natural umami, point to restrained aroma and a light, dry body. This places it in the sou (crisp) quadrant with low sweetness and moderate richness.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
