Caramel color, with thick legs. Rich, honeyed malts, vanilla, carnation, licorice, and marmalade. Additional cedar and red apple secondary aromas. Rich mouthfeel. Long, 30+ second finish. My first Fuji Gotemba! Delightful! — 9 years ago

Deeply coloured wine. Very nice and elegant after one day of airing. Rich, plummy with fresh damsons fruit. A hint of smoke, zan and crushed stones. Full, ripe with fine tannins. The finish is tight, smooth and fresh. One to try with "Boeuf mode"! — 10 years ago

Good surprise for an unknown estate to me.
Spicy nose, already feeling richness in alcohol.
Mouth nevertheless balanced, with Zan and liquorice flavours. Finishes on black fruit notes, quite long.

Rich chestnut color. Nose: Carnations, fresh kiwis, lavender, vanilla, malt, honey, and cedar. Mouthfeel is round, a bit hot. Flavors: Mirror the aromas with the addition of warm cereal and subtle red fruits. Medium finish. Very nice offering from Kirin. — 9 years ago

Kirin Hizo Shu Shizuku. This sake is a rare find. Aged for 5 years in a low temperature to add complexity and using the natural gravity flow method, the sake is complex and rich yet has a dry smooth finish. Hands down one of the best dry sake in the market. — 11 years ago
