Jun 10, 2009 Bottle: Pours a milky color with a bit of particles but not overly huge. The nose is strong with alcohol and coconut with a tangy note that could be perceived as lemongrass or acidity. The flavor is sweet and fruity with lots of coconut, which the nigori probably adds a fair amount of I assume. The finish is acidic and lingering. Too sweet for me but I can see blending this on ice for a little pseudo-sake pina colada might be fun.

Mar 25, 2008 The aroma has a strong coconut presence with rice and alcohol. The appearance is cream colored with a white haze. The flavor is like the aroma with cinnamon and astringent tastes. The palate is oily. Overall it’s interesting.

Mar 25, 2008 There is defenitly a coconut presence and it is overpowering, its feels more like a rum that a sake. IT tastes a tad medicinal yet after you get a couple of sips you get some pleasant surprise.

Mar 6, 2008 Thank you ilovedarkbeer for this pina colada, I mean sake. Aroma is that tropical drink we all know. No head, but waves and chunky legs. Small particles floating. Some alcohol on the taste but a lot of coconut. Chucky mouthfeel but nice. Not a great sake but quite drinkable!

Mar 5, 2008 Well, this gets me a new sake style... but it wasn’t very good. I was hoping it’d be like so many Thai coconut drinks that are available. But it wasn’t anything like that! The sake pours to a super murky coconut milk looking body with small particulate. The aroma is heavily coconut milk with notes of lemongrass. Polished rice. The flavor is actually not that bad with super sweet coconut milk, cinnamon, lemongrass, and Cinnabon cinnamon rolls on the finish. The palate is sweet, surprisingly warming but not sharp for 18%. Sticky.

Mar 2, 2008 I am going to call this, "I can’t believe its not tanning lotion." Pours a cloudy white color with a bit of a yellow tint. Nose is pure pina colada and lemons. Taste is acidic, sweet, and there is some bubblegum. Hot mess is what I say. No thanks tastes terrible.

Feb 29, 2008 Thanks (sorta) to Blake for bringing the bottle. Poured thick milky white with some sticky, chunky legs running down the sides. The aroma was very much pina colada, with a bit of wheat and coconut milk. The flavor had lots of coconut with sharper lemongrass on the back-end.. husky and warm on the back-end, and nothing that I want to taste again. Milky and a little chunky on the palate, leaving a gross sticky feel behind.. the only plus is that it masked the alcohol a bit.
