This is Tedorigawa, Yamahai, Daiginjo, from Ishikawa. It’s a nice one although I would not say a favorite. A little sharp on the palate for me and was expecting something a bit more rounded. This was by the glass and closer to the end of the bottle so I’m not sure how long it had been open. For sure classic Yamahai flavors and nose although that was a bit muted which I attribute to it having been open. — 3 months ago

2021/6/5 with delivery from Ishikawa. When we ate at Ishikawa a. Umber of years back we enjoyed a bottle of 1996 Ente Meursault, so I though it would be fun to have another mature bottle from the village this time. Deep gold with amber glints, this was clearly mature but not overly so for my tastes - lemon custard and nice acidity balanced the nutty, rich aged flavors. A really mature white Burgundy is such a rare, wonderful treat. — 4 years ago

Noguchi Naohiko Sake Institute Premium Ouveau Honjozo. This has a lot of punch to it - little bit in the bitter side if taken by itself. Better with food and had with butterfish and sea perch sushi. Went very well with that after the differential with the prior sake was past. — a year ago

Cloudy, better with the chill off, really strong flavors so not a “like-water” sake. Sweet, clean and warming — 3 years ago
