Small glass at a new ramen place in nyc. They served this is a cedar box (masu), with a glass sitting inside of it, that had intentionally overflowed into the box. I figured I was supposed to pour it into the masu, which I did, and it was fine, except then it started leaking all over the place. So I poured it back in the glass, although the masu smelled delicious.

No doubt it’d overpower this sake though, it being very very mild, with light melon and orange and a touch of mint. Super dry , with no phenols. Very yummy stuff.

Had this with some Sapparo @ Haru in nyc. Liked the saki we had right before this one. Okay, but sort of expensive.

Had this at Haru Sushi on Wall Street, NYC. Overall very good, but a little pricey. Had an interesting taste which I could see some people appreciating. Not as good as the bottle we had before this.

Crisp and clear, aroma light apples and slightly sweet and puzzlingly dry. Delicately sweet flavor with faint almonds but lots of herbal and floral flavors...turns dry in the finish but still a slight residual sweetness.

The best of the sakes I have tasted. Dry wine like feel on the mouth and goes down very smooth. Tingles the throat and a taste that sits on the tongue begging for you to have another sip.
