Bullwinkle
Just getting started with sake after 12+ years in wine country and I don't think I'll be turning back.

- BullwinkleA very nice but unique flavor profile. Nose is soft and distant. Flavor is intense with yicama, fruit/olive pit, soil, oil, mushroom, and deep earth. Surprisingly bitter. Honestly I like it on its own but it's a lot. Would pair well with ramen and miso.

- BullwinkleBright melon on the nose. Strawberry, lychee, melon, sweetness up front with strong alcohol to finish. Texture is smooth but thin. Would pair well with nigiri and crudo. A bit sweet to have by itself.

- BullwinkleTokubetsu junmai. Soft mouthfeel the second day. Light, smooth texture, lychee and currant flavor is strong but not overpowering. Finish is short but pleasant. Would be a versatile sake with food and a decent drink on its own.

- BullwinkleJunmai Ginjo. Lots of umami and mushroom on the nose. Soft texture, flavor of light melon, pear, and rather intense pepper on the finish. Alcohol and pepper carry on for a while.

- Bullwinkle"Ginrei" Junmai Daiginjo. Some funk on the nose, with notes of melon. Flavor is rather abrasive, with melon and stone fruit, but a strong alcohol presence. If I were to have it again I'd do so with food for sure. Not the most pleasant sip on its own.

- BullwinklePale straw color. Huge nose of muscat and fruit. Mouthfeel is full and round. Big flavor of lychee, melon, strawberry, and a nice clean finish. Definitely enjoy it cold.

- Bullwinkle"Honkara" or "Honjozo Karakuchi". Soft and round mouthfeel. Flavor is mild at first, becomes quite spicy and peppery as the finish carries on. All in all a very nice drink and one that could accommodate foods quite well.

- Bullwinkle"Silver Mountain" Yamahai Junmai Full and round mouthfeel. Very flavorful and full bodied. Notes of plum and currant, with strong acidity and alcohol through the finish. A nice drdrink and would pair well with food.

- Bullwinkle"Noble Arrow" Tokubetsu Junmai Mouthfeel is soft and silky, very clean. Nose is sweet, with notes of bubblegum. Normally not my thing but the flavor is quite different. Flavor is full, but not overpowering. Notes of stone, umami lingers, slightly minty finish. Finish hangs for a while given how light overall the drink is. Overall I like this drink a lot. May be overpowered by many foods though.

- BullwinkleGinjo Nama Genshu Full bodied with a thick mouthfeel. Nose is full with notes of forest floor. Strong flavor on the palate of mushroom, umami, plum. Finish is clean with alcohol. I'd say a food-favored sake but definitely a nice pairing.

- BullwinkleI don't normally drink Nigori but this one looked nice. Beautiful label and presentation, not too cloudy. On the palate it is very forward and flavorful, alcohol straight from the start with melon, lycee, pear, and straw. Hot all the way and leaves a strong residual flavor of metalic bitter. All in all a nice drink and definitely one to pair with food for me.

- BullwinkleHuge green apple flavor all the way through. Texture was nice and soft with good depth. Can't remember much more as I was dining out.

- BullwinkleOrdered in a restaurant and was very pleased. Full bodied, dry, and delicate. Had good dimensionality front start to finish. Would absolutely get it again, and I did that evening.

- BullwinkleRice: yamada nishiki and akebono. Yeast: #9 Opened after having chilled, I get yeast on the nose. Texture is smooth and cool, flavor hits quickly. Banana and pear, with a bit of funk. Alcohol and acidity is present and carries through the finish. I don't love the bottle and presentation, feels gimmicky. That said, the sake isn't bad and I'll return to it after its aired for a while.

- BullwinkleStrong nose of alcohol and a bit of sweetness. Thin texture and flavor up front but deepens into a soft, warm fruity quality with marshmallow on the finish. No burn or acidity, very smooth. Was much more pleasant after having aired overnight.

- BullwinkleVery light and watery on the front with subtle flavor following. All together very quiet and smooth. An incredibly understated drink, and one that I think would be overpowered by most foods. That said, by itself it is delicious.

- BullwinkleA fruit forward and pungent nose. Very balanced flavor and texture. Fruity, dry, notes of quince and watermelon. Finish is smooth with a hint of alcohol but the flavors carry. Very pleasant.

- BullwinkleRice: Yamada Nishiki, Gohyakumangoku Opened room temp. Bottle says to drink room temp or warm while I usually drink cold. May not refrigerate after open. A very rich, funky, spicy drink. Soft texture on the front. Funky, earthy flavor with black pepper on finish. Lots of depth. I can see how drinking cold would mask the flavor.
