Bottle chilled from Party Town. Poured clear color with legs. Moderate coconut, melon and alcohol aroma. Medium body with a medium smooth dry texture. Moderate sweet melon flavor with a sweet alcohol burn finish of moderate duration. I would recommend this to a freind.

There seem to be a strange wood flavor that works against this sake. its very strong yet its flavor is too distinct to truly enjoy.

The aroma is ricy with alcohol. The appearance is clear. The flavor is like the aroma but strong. The palate is watery. It’s one dimensional but not terrible.

Served chilled. Good stuff. The aroma is a bit subdued, but a bit of plum is detectable. Appearance is clear with a slight yellow tinge and decent legs. Taste shows a lack of sugar, but it is pretty well balanced. Alcohol is noticable. Lightly syrupy mouthfeel.

Poured into masu from ceramic jug. Very light aroma and taste with an alcohol taste at the finish. Decent ginjo.

I am starting to really get into Sake! This drink has a very light aroma, some flower, some alcohol, faint whiffs of magic. Hides the alcohol quite well, but it can hit you hard if you take to big of a sip... good subtle flavours. Overall, a very nice buy, has some burn to it but quite enjoyable!

Pours a oily transparent water. The aroma has a light fruitness. Oily texture, a bit flowery taste, sweet nutes, mellow, sweet. Pleasant.
