Jul 18, 2009 Having sushi, had to have sake. I am not claiming I know much at all about sake. All I know is that all previous attempts to like this beverage have failed horribly. Gekkikan is to blame for that. That being said, I found this crazy concoction actually pretty enjoyable. It pours a milky white with small bits of rice that stuck to my glass. (I’m not sure if that’s good or not, but it looked kinda nasty). Aroma is sweet, grassy, fruity and some rice. The taste is really quite enjoyable. Smooth creamy notes with soft exotic fruits, a little grass, candy, rice, and a hint of alcohol. Nice creamy mouthfeel. This is the first sake I actually enjoyed.

Jul 18, 2009 Drank it at San Shi Go in Laguna Beach, CA. My first sake rating. Pours white and very cloudy, you have to shake every time you drink. Smooth and silky, nice sweetness which hides very well the ABV of 15%.

May 31, 2009 Bottle, 375ml, thx to yespr. It pours an unclear, milky white body without any carbonation or head. Alcohol, grains, fresh and some dried fruits in the aroma. Alcohol, grains, mostly cooking rice, fruits, dessert wine and some dried fruits in the mouth. Warming and dry, yet with a sweet impression. A nice and warming drink that i really liked. (090514)

May 29, 2009 Bottle from a local sushi place. Very deep, thick milky white appearance. Sort of leggy with some light sticky white particles. The aroma is fruity with a prominent coconut and tapioca sweetness with a faint touch of light fruit. Soft and fruity with a touch of light alcohol. Finish is a bit sweet with a bit of coconut and a light melony finish.

Mar 31, 2009 375ML bottle. Pours a milk white and is rather clingy. Taste is of rice and alcohol. Similar aroma. Smooth, slightly pulpy body and is slightly sweet. Easy to drink and rather enjoyable. A nice sake to sip.

Mar 5, 2009 Like a nigori should be, the appeaance is very milky, even chunky at times, hinting that the filter for the lees might have had some far-too-large gaps. The scent is fairly muted, but suggests coconuts and coconut milk - a very nice touch. The palate is medium heavy, even mucousy, but in a good way, making this viscous and at times chewable. Also comes complete with a good alcohol bite amongst more coconut notes. Drinkable, tasty, but very one-dimensional too. Nice starter Nigori for beginners, I think.
