300ml. Although not quite as sugary sweet as other low-grade sparkling sake sold in the U.S., it is still nothing to really get excited over. Decent small-bubble carbonation leads to a pleasantly crisp mouthfeel. 7% ABV.

300ml. Impressive marketing, with the unique bottle, label, and cloth on top of the cap. Label is a bit too "busy" for my tastes, and totally eschews the traditional labeling format used in Japan (not always a bad thing for foreign markets, but a bit much here). Inside we find a very tasty JDG, light-bodied with notes of pear and melon. A bit expensive to drink on the regular (this 300ml was $20.99), but a delicious treat on occasion.
