It's really rare for us to buy a nigori or a can-Sake but we are Trying to challenge our Ginjo Junmai-snobbery. Normally I would dismiss can- Sake as a Shinkansen drink but we thought we could try this with dinner.
My wife says: It has a milky and very fruity aroma from the first sip, and is quite strong enough to give you heartburn if you drink too much. I don't think I'll repeat it, but it's good for the extreme cold of -17°C (-17°F).

Sharp alcohol flavor and fragrance. Sweet lingering finish. Surprisingly good.

It holds up well against the strong flavored leftovers (bean soup, 茶飯) we are eating tonight.

I’d buy it again if my wife lets me.
