DLD ’08: Bottle shared by moejuck: Pours clear with some pretty solid legs after a swirl. Aroma, earthy, rice, some fruit character to it. Flavor, rice, some spices, grains, almost bready, fruity notes. The alcohol was pretty evident, and while I’m not a sake fan this was by far the best one I’ve tasted.

Mar 27, 2008 Another stellar Saki from the zipps cdrew. Floral and fruit notes on this beer with sake mold. Sweet caramel with a subtle mix of fruits and rice.

Mar 1, 2008 Big thanks to Bman113VR for brining this treat over. Pours a pale yellow color. Nose is fruity maybe blueberries and almost no rice. Taste is sweet and incredibly smooth. Feels like fresh pure spring water. Nice soft and thick mouthfeel. What an amazing sake.

Mar 1, 2008 Aroma is extremely fruity. Golden hued body. The taste is so smooth it hurts. Fruity, but subtle, a perfect balance.

Jan 4, 2008 Aroma has licorice, plastic, vanilla, ice cream. Clear of course but not as bright water, perhaps a hint of color there? Tough to tell from a ceramic sake glass that casts shadows. Alcohol in the nose but only when you hold it in your mouth, otherwise for raw aroma and flavor there’s nothing there but smoothness. It dissolves like an angel cake. What a special drink.
