A rare strain of rice. I get strong licorice or anise on the nose with a hint of menthol (mint) in the flavor. Interesting in balance. Sweetness lingers for a bit. The texture is like a fine liquor.

A gorgeous sake. Clean and smooth. Some effervescence but nice honey and ripe banana flavors.

Nice honeydew melon and lychee flavor

Very bright and lovely sake. Super dry finish, hints of jasmine and earthiness on the nose. I get notes of butteriness and crisp apple in the flavor.

A personal favorite. Starts out very unassuming with a mild nose that holds green apple and almond with hints of vanilla and flora. Flavor is very complex: caramel, banana, rose hips, and melon.

Pear, vanilla and floral nose. Vanilla, pear, melon, white pepper and rice flower in flavor.

Very nice earthy but balanced sake. I get good hints of moss and banana on the nose followed by green apple and banana with some minerality in palate.

Very interesting balance between dry and sweet. I love the fruit forward taste with its melon and ripe banana flavors. Nose is subtle but distinct. Paired with grilled octopus.
