750 ml violet coloured screwcap bottle in cardboard box, from Vinmonopolet. ABV is 14.8%. Clear, nearly colourless (like water), no carbonation. Aroma of boiled rice, anise, alcohol and marzipan. Flavour of anise and alcohol, quite dry. Another futile purchase, in my desperate journey towards an understanding of what’s so great about sake.

300 ml bottle.
Aroma is sweet, rounded, with umami, and rather alcoholic with a bit of citrus.
Flavor is lean, dry, alcoholic, fruity, with a good bit of citrus. Decent round mouth. Good enough, but the genshu level of alcohol really makes it hard to catch the more subtle flavors at first, though some of it faded. Nice round mouth. Flavorful and fresh-tasting.

Bottle. Pours thick and pulpy. Sweet banana in the nose. Flavor is a sweet banana, coconut, and rice. It’s OK, but not flavorful enough.

Bottled. My second sake, if I remember correct. Clear see-through no-coloured and no headed.
Fridge cold (7-8 C). Aroma is alcohol, rice and citrus fruity. Flavour is rice, a bit alcohol, watermelon and some citric hints. The alcohol noteable is quite \"sharpedged\". Dry palate.
Room Temperature (17-18C). Aroma gets a bit \"fuller\" of the same as colder. The main difference is the alcohol which now fits in better both in aroma and flavour. Dry palate.
Warmed up to about 30C. Smooth as whole impression, the alcohol in not as sharpedged anymore, and it somehow feels even more full than the lower temperatures. A bit warm vodkaish, but the fruityness (citrus and watermelon) was a big positive thing compared to Gekkeikan (Laurel Crown) Traditional Light Sake. Quite easy to drink, especially when warmer.

Grainy rice and soy sauce aroma. Yellow water appearance. Sweet rice flavor with light fruitiness and an alcohol burn finish. So-so
