Kun-shu — aromatic and light
The description cites fruity, refined aroma and gentle sweetness, and SMV +1 with acidity 1.5 supports a balanced, slightly sweet profile. The unfiltered 16–17% body reads as fuller yet clean and crisp, placing it in the aromatic, light-to-medium zone.

About
Winner of an IWC Gold Medal and Trophy. Since the start of the Heisei era, it has won more gold medals at the Annual Japan Sake Awards than any other brewery in Akita Prefecture, ranking first in the prefecture. This unfiltered Genshu (undiluted sake) has a fruity, gentle, and refined sweetness that hardly seems to come from rice, followed by a moderate acidity and a crisp, smooth finish. Given its outstanding consistency and strong reputation, this bottle is a good place to start for anyone wishing to get to know Yukinobosha.
