sakedetroit300ml。アメリカの城東ブランドでは最高級品。メロンと洋梨の香り。美味しいが、アメリカのJDGはいつものようにかなり高い(特にレストランでは)。

sakedetroit一杯だけのお酒にはあまり期待していないが、これは特に...不味かった。必ずしも悪い意味ではないが、その日にI'ma Detroitで試飲した他の5種類の日本酒と比べると、はっきりとした味の特徴がない。

sakedetroit300ml。アメリカで販売されている他の低級スパークリング酒ほど甘くはないが、それでも興奮するほどのものではない。程よい小気泡の炭酸が心地よくキレのある口当たりをもたらします。アルコール度数7%。

sakedetroit300ml. Very earthy, strong flavors coming off of this JG. 15-16% ABV.

sakedetroit300ml. 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.

sakedetroit720 ml. Very mild, drinkable junmai -- one of the better ones I've had lately. Same quality level as the previously reviewed Sōtō Junmai, but without the mild alcohol bite at the end (despite the slightly higher ABV of 14.9%).

sakedetroit720 ml. Like the bottle. The text on the label is a bit scattered, but it works OK (although tough to find the information usually found easily on more traditional designs). Taste is pretty decent, although with a bit of alcohol on the back-end (despite the relatively mild 14% ABV).

sakedetroit300 ml. Cheap, sugary sparkling sake at 7% ABV. Way too sweet, with very faint carbonation.

sakedetroit300 ml. Ugly, cheap-looking label. Sake was unimpressive overall, but it was one of the only namazakes available in the area. No bottling date visible, so I'm wondering if it is old stock that has gone bad...
NoLoIf u want to know when it was bottled, the data is written of left side of the label.
NoLoI expect it was bottled in 2〜3years ago.
sakedetroitThanks @NoLo! Looked for it but didn't see.

sakedetroit300 ml. Low ABV (13.5%), watery junmai sake with not much in terms of taste, but easily drinkable.

sakedetroit720 ml. Nothin special, but better than the Hakutsuru nigorizake that was also available at Costco. Notes of melon. Quite sweet.

sakedetroit720 ml. Very full-bodied junmai, but wasn't as impressed with the flavor versus other junmai sakes during our most recent tasting session.

sakedetroit300 ml. A very full-bodied JDG, much heavier than even many JG sakes I have tasted recently. A bit surprising -- tasted more like a junmai. Bit pricey at $15/bottle.

sakedetroit300 ml. Average-tasting junmai for an above-avergae price ($9).

sakedetroit720 ml. Perfectly decent junmai sake. Noticed it on a local Asian restaurant menu and had it there, so decided to give a full bottle a try. Good price for a decent drink (around $12), but nothing special.
