From my sake backlog. 300 ml bottle. Clear, pale yellow body. For me the aroma is just like water from boiling rice and quite strong alcohol fusel. Flavor is boiled rise water and alcohol as well. I had another sip the next morning, and might just sense a little hint of something between fruity and flower. I don’t know much about Sake, but I can’t believe this strong alcohol flavor make this one of the better samples. I’s simply too sharp on the alcohol. With the rest I just have to work my scores around middle as a I go on and learn more about this stuff.

Bottled@fonefan. Water coloured, no head. Aroma is rice, some alcohol, mild strange sweetness as well as some slight phenolic and mild sweet vegetably notes to it. Flavour is similar, with the alcohol sweetness giving the whole thing a nice balance among all the other elements.

Etwas alkoholischer, allerdings sehr weicher Beginn. Intensiv nach Reis, minimal säuerlich. Gut. 9/9/11/9/11/9

Sampled @ RB Danish Summer Gathering 2013 day 1, Ulfborg. Bottle. Looks like water. Not a lot of aroma. Taste is so hard to describe. Anise maybe? No can’t be it, I dislike anise and this doesn’t taste too bad. Actually quite nice, but I have no idea how to rate this properly.

Bottle, 30cl, at RBNAG -09. Courtesy of Gr0ve. A clear, colorless drink. Alcohol, papery rice, some fruityness and unripe banana on the nose. The flavor is very ricey, with the same unripe banana-like fruityness. Alcohol warmth down the throat, medium body fullness. A sort of decent sake, but not my choice for a drink on its own. 091107
