Nice! And very interesting! Picked cucumbers, saison lingering there in the back. Very good stuff!

big tart red cherries green apples and oak with a touch of raisins in the nose. Amazing nose. The palate has way more caramel and red cherries. Tart but not super well balanced . Not bad. Like the nose more than palate

Quite salty somehow. Light lemon. Not a great deal of saison but if it was called a grisette I would have appreciated it more maybe. Still nice though.

Alright. I like the kabosu but people say there’s something weird about it but it’s changing my mind. Still alright I think.

Bottle. Lactic cream vanilla peaches and cream nose. Apricots. Deep fruitiness. Glowing golden honey-like. Beautiful. Rich, fruity flavor, funky old leather, oak. Body a bit thin and flat. Silky. Good but maybe past its prime.

Quite tart. Very fun. Fruity and delicious. Hint of something saison like in the background but if they’d called this ume sour it would work too.

Tap at Kanazawa. Nose is grapes, wine, oak, lactic acid. Tart and oaky, wine notes and grape notes, full of flavor, nicely sour, great fruit, great balance.

Easy going, bit grainy. Not that exciting, but it’s nice. Prefer their Irodori saisons I think
