I am a third generation Japanese living in Hawaii. My first Sake, Dewazakura Ooka, started my quest to learn more about Sake. Always tasting, always learning.

This Sake has a light aroma of grapefruit. The flavor is also light with fruit and citrus. Nice acidity that give a tingle on the tongue. The mouth feel is juicy and the finish is clean. I really enjoy the playfulness of this Sake and will add it to my list of favorites. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

This Sake soft and sweet like cotton candy. The mouth feel is full and juicy. It then changes to a sharp citrus flavor with a dry, clean finish. It's no wonder that I can't stop drinking this. ๐Ÿ˜‹

This Sake is soft, juicy and sweet. The flavor reminds me of the Tochigi milky strawberry and it has a full, soft mouth feel. The acidity at the end cleanses the pallet and leaves a very light sour finish. This is a fun Sake to try. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

This Sake has a gentle sweetness and light effervescence. There is a bit of sourness towards the end. The finish is long and sustains the sweet flavor. The flavor reminds me of a juicy ripe apricot. Light and refreshing a great combination.

This Sake is rich and full bodied. For me, the flavors that stand out are honey and rice. It seems similar to a dark stout beer. There is a good balance of flavor and a clean finish. This Sake lives up to its name. ๐Ÿ˜

This Sake is sweet, full and strong. The full juicy mouth feel and sweet flavor of melon and pear calm the strong taste of this genshu. This is great for sipping with strong flavored foods.
