My fiance and I sampled this at a tasting event and loved it. This is my first experience with trying to taste sake seriously.
This drink is very faintly aromatic--just barely floral, with a whisper of melon like cantaloupe. Its taste is equally delicate, so it's very drinkable and food-friendly. Subtly sugary with a tiny taste of tang, it reminds me of Asian pear--an earthy, prickly sweetness. It's like a gentler version of sparkling wine without the bite, or a sweet Riesling without quite so much in-your-face sugariness. It's easy to want more!
