This is the sake I’ve always wanted. Nutty on the nose, dry, smooth, absolutely incredible. My palate might not be refined enough to taste the sunflower but 🤷‍♂️ — 4 years ago

This is ginjo version, not honjozo version. Fresh yet flavourful and medium body, smooth taste goes well with any dishes. Temp tasted was from chilled to room temp, then tried on luke warm temp as well. Once passed room temp, initial flavour really kicks with rice and a little alcohol; but tasted actually milder than when chilled.
From fresh seafood to deep fried dishes, it went very well. — 7 years ago

Drank over 6 weeks opened in my fridge and it stayed fresh throughout. Richly layered aromas and flavors of chocolates, pistachio, green grapes, and honeydew melon with floral undertones. Savory but offset by some residual sugar. Sufficiently robust for the main course. Really nice. — 7 years ago

Very very nice sake at the offered price range. Lots of lovely character with smooth texture (almost like a condrieu). — 7 years ago

One of the best sakes I’ve had. Floral bouquet, smooth, silky, semi-sweet, amazing to pair with flavorful fresh nigiri. Tried it at Mako in Chicago and was a highlight of the wine and sake pairing Omakase experience. — 4 years ago
