Hi! I'm an American living in New York City. I love sake but I don't know much about the different types yet, so I want to learn by experimenting.

This is an 梅酒, but it does say it's made with sake so I decided to post it. I don't usually like umeshu (too sweet) so I bought a small sample size to try this. It's actually very good! It's sweet, of course, but because it's also spicy the sweet flavor of the plum is not overpowering. I don't think I would buy a large bottle for myself, but I might share one with friends.

Fruity, sweet, with a bright taste that mellows into a light earthy flavor. Easy to drink, smooth.

I liked this one. There's plenty of acidity but it still feels smooth and balanced. It loses a lot of flavor when it reaches room temperature. Best to chill.

I didn't enjoy this one very much. It's a little sour, and you can taste the alcohol.

Better for a cocktail than alone. Sweet, thick with matcha powder. This was good with lemon juice.
