180 ml can from Ponshukan. Shiro koji is all the rage among young women and chefs, using it to add umami to foods. Now it has of course made its way into sake. Not surprised it is this one. Nose of rice, koji, umami, rather straightforward junmai. Clear, slightly viscous. Very sweet, and surprisingly fruity--almost no fruit in the nose, but huge lemon, orange, pineapple, watermelon in the mouth. Mostly citrus though, and the rice is rather covered. Rather light. A little simple and childish. Too obviously fruity, really and too sweet.

Bottle. A clear one, almost colorless. Some cooked rice on the nose, rather fruity too, and with a touch of something boozy, without being boozy though. Dry, lighlty oily and warming on the palate. Some boozy flavors and also some cooked rice. Quite fruity flavor that lasts. A decent sake indeed, but a bit boozy-feeling. I like the fruityness though. 111105

150 ml Can. Three years past its “drink by,” though it has been refrigerated the whole time.
Slightly sweet aroma, with caramel, peach, condensed milk. Clear and slightly viscous. Slightly oxidized flavor, with melon and pear, pepper, milk, caramel. Alcohol very noticeable, with a tingle on the tongue. Rather high acidity. Clean and crisp. This is generally a rather light-flavored ginjo, and I think the extra age has probably made it more characterful. Decent stuff, though still a bit too subtle and light (=watery=mizu no gotoshi).
