Pearl Nigori Junmai Ginjo Sake

Creamy without being oily. Slight tropical citrus burn on the end. Stands up against soy sauce, so good for pairing with sushi.

Silky milky fruity cashews

Oregon sake!, light and creamy

Shake well, shake very well

Unfiltered sake at Hapa Izakaya. Slightly off dry and perfect with torched mackerel.

Smooth, medium+ body, light and fruity.

The 18% abv is noticeable right up front. The nose is pretty straight forward, a hit of fresh light fruit, almonds, and the alcohol, sweet but slightly overpowering the other smells. The body is nice, it has a very fine creamieness that gives an almost velvety feel. Tastes of apple and sharp fresh fruit on the palette, with an under ripe plum/apricot finish that lingers for a good while after swallowing. Very good overall.

Not overly creamy. Medicinal and overly aromatic when heated. Chilled it showcases a nice tropical fruit palate with a little bite.

Not as creamy as it looks. Good for the price. $12 at shabu zen
