Pale green, ever so slightly hazy body. Extremely delicate scent of pear. Water-like palate and faint flavour of rice and pear with a breath of alcohol on the end. A very reserved, proper sort of sake.

Courtesy of Naka. This is my first Sake rating/experience with good Sake. Pours clear with yellow tint. Sweet nose with hints of apple and pear, and what must be rice. Some alcohol also on the nose. Taste is sweet fruit, pear, apple, and cherry, with what I guess is rice and some alcohol warmth. Tasty offering. I’m now officially interested in Sake.

almost perfectly clear .. some very light pear and melon whiffs, some other light aromas ... quite alot of flavour in this one, very tasty! various light fruits and such... .. one of the nicer and more pleasant sakes i’ve had to date.. bought at Kroger at the new sushi bar..

Very clear pour. This could easily be mistaken for water. Very enjoyable aroma. Musty and clean at the same time (I don’t know how else to say that) with just a light fruit presence. The flavor is pretty clean as well. Fruity and floral but delicately so. It’s good. Clean wet mouth feel. I’d drink this again.

Courtesy of Naka. So I’ve tried many saké before this, but I’ve never rated one. The bottle has been passed around and was open for a bit, but stored in the fridge until this evening, when I took it out to come to room temperature before enjoying. This one has a delicate aroma, with a bit of alcohol vapor, pear juice, and mild vanilla. Also perhaps a bit of jasmine or honeysuckle in there, too. Light and enjoyable nose. Crystal clear body, with just a bit of yellowish tint to it, light white grape juice but not even as dark. Mild watery body, like a white wine, with obvioulsy no carbonation. Very smooth, with no snappy acidity or odd bitterness on the palate. Starts fairly sweet and fruity, with vanilla, oak, and pear being the predominant flavors. Just a little bit of fruity acidity, but mild. Light alcoholic warming toward the end. Watery and mild, but very enjoyable. Leaves a light fruity taste, with even a bit of rose water. I’m going to have to seek out more saké to try.
