| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 3, 2006 300mL bottle. Pours clear with the slightest tinge of yellow. Upon agitation, legs occur immediately, and stick around for a couple minutes. Aroma of melon, vanilla, rice, alcohol. Some melon sweetness in the middle into a nice, dry finish. The flavor follows the aroma. Medium bodied, warming alcohol--especially in the back of the throat. Still haven’t had a ton of sakes, though I did like this one.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 25, 2006 Approximately $13 for a small bottle of this. I decided to try it and brought it to the Tosa tasting. The sake pours to a watery looking body with decent legs. The flavor is rice, vanilla, white chocolate, floral components. The aroma is quite floral. Some rice, vanilla, white chocolate, and cookie dough. The palate is nice. Slick feel. Mangino (1027), Mississippi, USA

Clear color, no different than water except the legs walking down the sides of the bottle. Aroma is strong alcohol, like a nice perfume. Flavor is smooth, not a lot of alcohol, a little coconut, jtw (944), farmington, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 10, 2006 crystal clear liquid which pours out of a bottle exactly matching the photo here. butter and cream aroma, along with a liquidy ricy smell which is hard to describe aside from "rice". smooth and dry, like "vodka jr." slightly perfume-like floral flavors (rose hips, butter, soy sauce/salt). light and aromatic, with a semi-dry finish and clean crisp flavor. completely inoffensive, if that serves as a compliment. shrubber85 (3017), Wallhalben, Germany
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 30, 2005 Bottle. Nice rice wine, butter, soy sauce and alcohol aroma. Light yellow color. Initially very waterlike then rice and soy flavors gradually come out and finishes with a mild alcohol burn finish. A fairly subtle and clean tasting sake - well balanced with no flavor coming out too strong. thedm (3837), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
