4.25+/5 Really nice stuff. Slightly off-dry, just a gentle sweetness and a good amount of acidity. Yellow apple, pear, raw almond, coconut, stone. Fruity flavors with a gentle creaminess and nuttiness is really nice. Clean finish, the acidity is a bit refreshing, and it goes well with food!

4.25+/5 Fairly dry with a nice bit of acidity. Pear, lime, coconut, raw almond. There’s just a tiny hint of sweetness but it isn’t too strongly dry either. Love the bit of acidity on this and the bright fruity flavors.

4.5/5 Slightly sweet, but full of savory flavor. Salted caramel, Brazil nuts, shiitake, hay. It’s nutty and earthy with a little bit of saline and acidity. The mushroomy flavor is really nice and creates an interesting combination with the sweetness. Goes particularly well with some savory snacks.

4.5/5 Really nice stuff. Very light but full of delicious delicate flavor. Yoghurt, strawberry, almond paste, coconut, stone. A little hint of sweetness and acidity, even less bitterness. Really smooth and light. Gentle but there’s a little kick at the end. The subtle creaminess is also really nice.

4+/5 Rich with light acidity and a slight sweetness. Flavorful, fruity, and floral. Yellow apple, muscat, honeysuckle, coconut, almond paste, stone. There’s a bit of an alcoholy burn on the finish, but overall it feels fresh and light. Went well with some cold udon.

4.25/5 Cream cheese, banana, pear, white chocolate, ginger, raw almond. Thick and creamy, pretty chunky stuff. Medium-low sweetness but fairly savory and a little meaty. Smooth with a bit of bitterness on the finish. Been drinking this over the course of at least two weeks and it’s held up very well throughout.

4.25/5 Pear, cantaloupe, cocoa, coconut cream, almond paste. Nice and lightly creamy for a nigori. Medium sweet, slight tang, balancing bitterness. Robust, fruity, and flavorful. I’ve been drinking this over the course of about two weeks and it’s been delicious throughout.

4.25/5 Honeydew, almond paste, yellow apple, coconut meat, stone. Light acidity and faint sweetness with a nice nutty bitterness. Clean, smooth, and well balanced. Goes down easy but feels sophisticated. Had as part of an omakase pairing, went very well with quality sushi.

4.25+/5 Coconut milk, pear, cantaloupe, honeysuckle, almond paste, cocoa. Light and smooth, almost creamy. Lightly sweet, pinch of acidity, feels delicate but there’s some strength in the background. Elegant and delicious, perfect for pairing with sushi!

4+/5 Asian pear, walnut, ginger, fennel, celery, caraway seed. And indeed a bit of something reminiscent of a meaty green olive. Initially feels light but quickly becomes strong and flavorful. Fairly dry, but there’s a gentle sweetness, medium-low bitterness. Goes well with food. Has a bit of a bite near the finish. I’ve had this open for like three weeks now and it’s tasted good all the way through. Definitely an interesting one to try!

4+/5 Light, creamy, smooth, and nutty. Coconut cream, butterscotch, cantaloupe, liquorice, walnut. Feels delicate and light-bodied but the flavours are strong. Nicely soft and creamy texture in the mouth. Very nutty finish with slightly bitter aftertaste. Overall pretty dry. Brewed in Hawaii, fun find! I had this last month but had to wait for the brand to be added to the database.

4.25+/5 Butterscotch, coconut meat, honeydew, Asian pear, marzipan, fennel. Delicate flavours, but there’s power and complexity. Slightly sweet, medium-low acidity. Smooth and light with a bit of gentle cream. Nutty bitterness on the finish with a slight bite. I don’t know to what extent aging has affected the flavour. I thought the liquid itself would have a bit of a pink hue, but it’s really just the bottle, a little disappointing. Pink or clear, fresh or old, it’s delicious though!

4.25/5 Also strong and sweet. Sweet and nutty and slightly meaty, chestnut-like. Chocolate-covered blackcurrant, roasted hazelnut, black pepper, honeysuckle. Theres a flavour there that feels very familiar, but I just can’t quite describe. Delicate flavours but bold and complex. Medium sweet but quite strong stuff. This is a very interesting and unique saké that I’m really happy to try as part of this set. However, overall, the original Funaguchi is still my favourite.

4+/5 Strong and sweet with a smooth depth. Big cocoa and walnut flavour with persimmon and raisin. Gentle slightly peppery spice flavours, maybe a hint of ginger and allspice. Really interesting and flavourful, fun to try as part of this three-pack set. The aging gives a slight caramel tint, but I guess this doesn’t count as koshu? If I compare with the regular yellow nama-genshu, I like the original better, but this is still very good in its own right.

3.75+/5 Whopping indeed. Other sparkling sakés I’ve had have all been very light, so this is a big divergence. Probably the strongest sparkling beverage I’ve had, wine included. And yet, despite that strength, light and delicate bubbles. Butterscotch, cantaloupe, Asian pear, candied pecan, burnt caramel. Quite bitter, slightly sweet, faint acidity. I think I like the still version better honestly, the alcoholic strength makes the delicate bubbles hard to appreciate. But still pretty fun!

4+/5 Really nice and light. Lightly sweet and tangy, real clean flavour. Very light but pleasant bubbles. Big honeydew melon with a bit of green apple, and some clean rice flavour. Hint of raw almond on the finish, with very light bitterness as well. Simple but effective!

4/5 Butterscotch, almond, persimmon. Strong but smooth, fairly alcoholic. Light on the fruit, but still a pinch of acidity. Fairly dry, slightly meaty. Some bitterness on the finish. Had this over about two weeks, it smoothed out a bit over time, but kept a distinct bite. Not unpleasant though. I’d prefer a bit more fruitiness, but this was enjoyable. Forgot to post this last month!

4.25/5 Delicate, lightly sweet, hint of acidity, somewhat bitter finish. Persimmon, pear, chocolate, walnut. Light body, delicate flavours, but it packs a punch. Pretty tasty, at first there was a little more bitterness than I’d prefer, but after breathing a little it’s smoothed out quite nicely. Fun little single serving, but I wouldn’t mind a full bottle of this stuff!

4.25/5 Nice with ice! Strong, clean, and slightly creamy. Banana, curaçao, coconut cream, almond paste, butterscotch, Asian pear. Indeed summery, like a pool party—though I could see it working any time of year, honestly. As the ice melts and waters it down the experience changes. Initially it’s full of flavour but a little strong, then it’s quite light and smooth and refreshing. A little more acidity might’ve been nice. I’ve been enjoying this over about two weeks, still really good!
