3.5/5. Solid. Lots of rice flavor. Forgettable so probably don’t need to revisit this specific bottle.

4.5/5 Aged sake. Sweet and caramel. After dinner. Poured over vanilla ice cream and was great. Revisit.

3/5. Ok for a lower price point, but probably not revisit. Dry, alcohol, umami, but didn’t love the finish.

4/5. Funky and unique. Bold, lots of umami. Soy sauce flavor. Annie did not like, but I appreciated the uniqueness. Can pair with heavy foods.

3.5/5. Sharp, medium acid, medium dry, earthy. Tasted alongside other, more expensive sakes so would revisit at right price.

4.5/5. Unpasteurized so little fizzy and has zing. Full flavored, silky, balanced acid. Revisit. Work great with food.

4/5. Effervescent initially. Semi dry. Fruity. Little rough and boozy in the finish. Would revise but better as a 2nd or 3rd bottle when getting my drink on.

4.5/5.0 Very balanced dry and acidity. Complex. Hints of barley/earthy on the finish. Pretty great, but pricey so might not be reasonable at a restaurant (bought for $125 at going out of business sake, can be over $200 at store, so ? At restaurant)

5/5. Bought in Japan in Kyoto food market. Loved it from what I remember (entered months after drinking). Definitely return if possible. Think $50 was what we payed.
