My first sake, not really sure what to expect. Sweet and fruity on the nose, with a whiff of spirit. From a taste perspective there's a touch of alcohol burn to begin with then it smooths out to reveal a mellow, sweet fruity flavour with a touch of bitterness in the finish, the mouthfeel having a very slightly viscous, oily feel to it.

Drank cold. The olfactory persistence is appreciable. The taste on the nose - dominant aroma is of malted rice Koji. The taste on the nose - secondary aromas are of melon, fruit and green apple. The first impression of intensity in the mouth is of powerful sake. The body is structured not heavy. The taste intensity is high, and the taste persistence is good. On the palate the sweetness is medium, the body is strong, and the aftertaste is intense. The taste is pleasant. The final mouthfeel sensations are of ready to drink, for a sake that tends more towards dry. The finish is velvety. The aroma in the mouth brings hints of white peach, melon, green apple and almond.
