Intriguing sake. Never had anything like this before. Traditional Mizumoto method, fermented with no temperature control and little intervention. Savory and quite acidic, notes of tamari. Serve very chilled. 18% abv. — 6 months ago

Very nice, one of the better ones I've tasted. Complex, not too sweet, but still clean tasting. — 4 years ago

A case for decanting saké? Too rich for my blood when first opened, but it became far more elegant after a week opened in the fridge. Very fruity and sweet at the start, but it became more nuanced with air. By the last few pours it reminded me a little of a savoury Sauv Blanc almost, though with far less acidity. Not bad. — 2 years ago

Could be mistaken for Alsatian Pinot Gris in a balmy vintage for all its ripe orchard fruit and white smoke -with a taut twang of a banjo string in terms of structure. Some good flesh and body to this. — 11 years ago
