Bottle… Clear, light yellow sake with fantastic, centipede-like legwork… nicer legs than a runway model. The aroma is funky and sweet – sweaty sock and sorghum – also boozy and hot. Full-bodied and oily. The flavor is of sweet ethanol and is a touch earthy. Sweet finish offers a little molasses and wood.

Thanks for sharing, csbosox. The body was pale yellow with some floral sweetness. There was also very apparent alcohol and some rice. A nice perfume note runs through the whole nose. The taste had some slightly sweet notes of pear juice and rice. There was also some subtle wood and sugar hints. A decent drink.
