AWASHIZUKU is a sparkling sake with a touch of “sour white koji”.
Low alcohol, sweet sparkling Junmaishu. Please enjoy the refreshing flavour with a crisp acidity of white rice koji.

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7

300ml bottle. Crystal clear, very pale yellow tint (odd then that they choose to put this in a blue tinted bottle, which of course made it look green...). Aroma is fruity, melon, something sweet/syrupy that I can't quite pinpoint, possibly banana. Taste is sweet, melon, pear, floral, again possibly some banana, caramelised sort of flavour, some alcohol warmth but no burn and doesn't feel particularly boozy. Light-moderate carbonation.
Sweetest of the few sake I've tried so far but rather enjoyable.

300ml bottle from Trembling Madness. Very pale yellow colour, white foam head that dissipates and aroma of rice, fruity. Taste is sweetish, rice, fruity, citric, caramel hints, boozy. Medium bodied, light foamy carbonation, boozy finish. Nicely drinkable.
