JensenTaster (1485), Denmark Mar 10, 2005 (on bottle)I paid the alot for this bottle at the local sushi-place, so this time; I´m rating a skae. Compared to others sakes I´´ve had, this was much more mild and the sent + tsste was much more balanced, witch ended up in a good feeling of warmth and not too much oxidation, witch I really hate about sakes; often smells and tastes like very old miller. Oakes (6973), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Mar 5, 2004 Light colour and crystal clear. Strong alcohol aroma, slightly spicy (nutmeg, sichuan peppercorn) with a little grapefruit and something odd like diluted durian...yeah that's what I was hoping for :(
Soft body, leaning towards fruitiness. Lighter in palate than the nose would indicate. Rough-hewn flavours and a muddled finish...this really never comes together. Unrefined.
