720 ml bottle from Furusato Nozei. Picked it up after seeing the ratings of my German friends. Big, spicy, fruity nose. Lots of ginjo-ka, western pears, melon, cedar. Mellow, viscous, clear. Slightly sweet flavor of ripe pears, rice, a touch of vanilla, melon, apple. Very rich and spicy, not the typical ethereal fruitiness of a refined daigin, but more solid. Silky, lovely body. Peppery, prickly finish with some alcohol heat. Fantastic stuff.

Can (black) at Hojoko, 2/1/16.
As far as I can tell, they have the regular nama (yellow), aged 1 year (red), freshly harvested rice (green) and this, containing single distilled sochu (black).
Clear, light pearl-tinted liquid.
Big melon, blackberry and light pina colada in the nose, it smells like a nigori, almost, though with less coconut and pineapple than those usually have. The fruitiness, mixing with the alcohol is interesting, at least and it doesn’t smell fusel-like.
The flavor is quite sweet, immediately, with a light berry-like acidity that I haven’t found in many sakes. Alcohol adds dryness and a good deal of heat, while strong koji notes and light coconut sit on the end. Quite interesting and fairly drinkable, but just too sweet for my tastes.
