Bottle for poker. Pours milky white. Nose is tropical fruit and rice. Tastes of pineapple rine, coconut, talc, rice, and some almonds. Grainy rough mouthfeel and touch of harsh alcohol on finish.

180 ml can. Poured ice cold. Very cloudy, milky, with rice particles. Creamy vanilla nose, nutmeg, rice pudding. Very sweet and thuck, very strong alcohol burn, light mint, coconut, pineapple, pina colada-like, alcoholic rice pudding. It is very strange and strong, though i dig it. A dessert sake, maybe, more like a sweet creamy cocktail. Crazy and great.
