Papsoe (10580), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 30, 2008 (Bottle 72 cl) Courtesy of Storm. Pours a hazy, greyish golden with no head. Soft, sweetish rice aroma. Medium body with a soft mouthfeel, notes of aniseed and fruit. Pleasant and very drinkable. 190408 yespr (6943), Copenhagen O, Denmark Apr 20, 2008 72 cL bottle, thanks to Storm - my first sake ever! Pours hazy and pale yellow with no head. Light spiced and mild alcohol aroma. Liqourice and mint aroma. Flavour is liqourice and menthol. Dry and light spiced finish. Reminds me a lot about the greek ouzo drink. Emil (6077), Copenhagen, Denmark May 4, 2008 Bottle. A watercoloured sake with no head. It taste much like ouzo, licorice and alcohol. Medium o full body with a alcoholic finish. fonefan (4888), Ulfborg, Denmark Aug 15, 2008 Bottle 72cl. Clear white color with virtually none head. Aroma is light alcohol. Flavor is moderate sweet and alcohol with a long duration. It taste like ouzo. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (130608) BückDich (4559), Boise, Idaho, USA Apr 28, 2005 Milky light white color, light sparkling qualities. I expect something different when the cap releases pressure when you open it. The nose has some earthy koji and light tropical fruits, not much in the realm of umami or alcohol, slightly medicinal as well. The flavor is a real turn off, very tart with more a slap of koji on the tounge. The tail is brief but not very good. Overall the alcohol is very well hidden but the flavor just doesn’t qualify this as an easy drinking beverage. Thanks to IdahoJizake for letting me try this.
