50th Anniversary Sake, first drink. Smells like green tea ice cream. Lactic acidity as the temperature rises. It is smooth, with the sweetness of rice, spiciness, and a firm taste in the middle, and the strength and bitterness of the alcohol give it a sharp taste. It is delicious and appetizing. Try it on the rocks as recommended. The sweetness stands out, and the bitterness and lactic acidity give it a refreshing kick. There is a gentle flavor of rice in the middle.

Very refreshing. I can see why it would make a good food wine.  Limited quantity/limited year-end release (shipped around November each year) Capacity & Packaging: 720 ml bottles, aluminum evaporated packaging to prevent ultraviolet rays . Sake & Acidity: Undisclosed (described as "refreshingly dry") - Aroma/Taste: - Chilled: Aromatic, refreshing, clear and dry. - Room temperature to lukewarm: soft aroma, soft mouthfeel . - Overall, it has a "smooth, clean taste" and is excellent as a food sake .
