Pour is clear with a faint yellowish hue...smell is lightly sweet and nutty with some sort of astringent note...taste is sweet...not much alcohol present, but not a lot of flavor either....some wet rice sweet flavor, light notes of almond paste and honeysuckle...finish is lingeringly sweet and perfumey...

Jun 15, 2009 Bottle: Pours clear with mild legs. The nose is ripe with melon and anise and some light apple/pear notes. A touch of rice and koji in the nose but it’s subtle, more of a smooth and floral initial impression. The flavor has a mellow impact but noticable; a little chewy on the mouthfeel and a nice smooth dry flavor but not the best overall feel on the tongue. A brief finish and it stays rather drinkable, smooth and quaffable. Nice combination of elements going on with a very light alcohol note. Quite delicious for SakeOne, their house rice doesn’t usually bode well for me save for their upper lineup. This was right up there and could nearly be in my top 10 american sakes. With the lightness in alcohol and aroma and the heartiness of the body; this would make an ideal candidate for a gently warmed premium sake.

Mar 24, 2009 Cold.....A clear body with a yellowish twinge to it. A clearly floral aroma with hints of subtle sweetness. Flavor had nice floral note to it, but it was balanced out by sweet grain notes. Finish was full and alcohol presence was minimal.

Nov 18, 2008 I’m tasting this cold. Clear and yellowish. Aroma is nice; warm, floral and fruity. Taste is floral and nutty. Some hibiscus, orange blossom and almond notes. Rice flavor is kinda strong and hard to get used to. Very thick mouthfeel, kinda oily. All in all, it’s not bad. I’m wondering if I should try this warm...
