I’ve been drinking sake in the USA casually for a few years and I’ve come to really enjoy it as one of my favorite drinks. Now I’m trying to experience, appreciate and learn more about sake.

Melon and floral tasting notes with a mostly dry but slightly sweet taste. It’s really nice and as good as I remember.

This is a sake that’s one of the more common brands found in liquor stores and restaurants in the USA. I drank it chilled and it was fairly light and dry which I liked but it didn’t have the best finish taste. Simple but a good enough drink to enjoy after a long day. A problem with some sake made for the USA is they don’t give the date it was bottled so I’m not sure how fresh it was.

We don’t always have a lot of sake options in USA liquor stores so sometimes I buy flavored sake to add variety to my options at home. This one was fairly sweet and had good Lychee flavor. Easy to drink. Not sophisticated but not bad.
