"Aromas of white grape, anise, with a hint of sweet rice follow through the medium-bodied palate, which has a slightly creamy texture, a hint of white pepper and fresh herbal notes. The long, clean finish makes this a great sippping sake as well as a companion to a wide range of foods." 89 Points, Beverage Tasting Institute Silver Medal, "Highly Recommended"

These same flavors come rushing through the medium-bodied palate which has a slightly creamy texture followed by a hint of white pepper and fresh herbal notes. The long, clean finish makes this a great sippping sake as well as a companion to a wide range of foods.
