Very pale. Pleasant aroma. Smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Great taste. Fruity at the start with notes of apple and pear. A richer umami flavour develops. Very good.

Bottle at Ante, Newtown. Very pale yellow colour, no head and aroma of rice, fruit. Taste is rice, fruity, melon, caramel hint, balanced, light warm alcohol. Oily mouthfeel, medium bodied, low carbonation, drying fruity finish. Nicely drinkable.

180 ml pour at Shinsengumi. Spicy, herbal nose, like anise, fennel, cinnamon, pepper. Very fascinating. Apple and pear flavors too, with anise. Wow, what a sake. Light sweetness in the middle but finishes quite dry. Delicious and the most unique sake I have had in a while. Got to try more from them.

Glass at Jam. Light dust in the nose, with tropical fruits. Very sweet and fruity flavor, big esters, peach, melon, mango. Rather dry finish considering the initial sweetness. Nice alcohol bite to balance. Full and smooth, silky. A bit too sweet, but great flavors.
