Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Bright lemon color, aromas of stone, citrus and tropical fruit with violet scents. On the palate flavors of pear, apples and pineapple with lemon citrus and chalky notes. Well balanced with pleasant lively acidity, long finish ending with fruit, mineral, citrus, floral and wet stone nuances. Very nice! — a month ago

Pale yellow white, pristine clarity. Neutral nose. Clean flavors, just some aftertaste of slight sweetness, rice starch and minerality. Slight viscosity, hints of lactic acid and microbe bitterness with some salinity. Almost a clinical take on sake: it is what it is. I think it’s nice, if you can reconcile your wabi/sabi with your production methods or “craft” here. 300 year old business, with 130 years of Yamada Nishiku rice production of this “special junmai”, according to their website. Full bodied and somewhat dry, they say. More savory than sweet, overall, so preferences should be divisive here. It’s not a sake for everybody… — 2 years ago
