From my sake backlog. 750 ml bottle. Body is almost clear as water and a bit oily, no head. Aroma is alcohol, fusel and a faint scent of marzipan, feels sweet in aroma. Flavor is sweet and alcoholic with a hint of harsh bitterness. Behind the alcoholic flavor the body feels more soft and almost chewy in palate. Fruitier in aftertaste. A bit rough in style and not particular elegant in taste.

On tap at Popeye, pours a cloudy peachy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out coriander and citrus zest. Flavour is crisp, with big coriander notes, citrus and soft wheaty notes. Lots of coriander and dry citrus. Good stuff for the style.
