Junmai Daiginjo

Very nice. Spicy and good acidity — 5 days ago

8 Years Snow Aged Junmai Daiginjo Sake

Can’t say I can tell a big difference between the 3 and the 8yr. Both are very nice. This has a bit less punch. Softer on the finish for sure. — a year ago

Tilts more towards a traditional IPA with slightly bitter hops, but quite punchy and refreshing - Buddha-Bar NYC. — 4 years ago

Second sake of Kaiseki dinner at Naza GiroGiro with willie. Also dry with touch of minty fruitiness. — a year ago

Kongoshin Junmai Daiginjo Sake

Nice, light on the flavor but sufficient finish, also light on the palate. I’m a big fan of the Snow bottle but this probably beats in a side by side. — 2 years ago

Perfect Snow Unfiltered Sake

Kikusui Perfect Snow - this is a heavy, thick sake with a stronger than expected alcohol bite. I should have known this from the name but for some reason was thinking it would be like Hakkaisan Snow-aged sake. Clearly not. — a month ago

Daiginjo

Niseko, Hokkaido, February 2024. Delicious! Delicate but also complex. Best sake I’ve tasted. — a year ago

Kowakura Shikomi Junmai Daiginjo Saké

It might have been the ambiance/glass/carafe they used to decant that has me giving this a higher rating than others but I think it’s accurate. Right out of the bottle it’s light, crisp and clean. As it opens and warms the flavors come out. I’d call it a light, sweet melon but if you told me it was an apple/pear sweetness I’d be hard pressed to disagree. Great bottle. Polished to 45% — 4 years ago
