oh6gdx (26483) - Vasa, FINLAND - FEB 19, 2017Bottled@The Hobbit Tasting. Yellow colour with no head. Aroma is quite white wine like with some rice, mild sweet sappy notes as well as some alcohol. Flavour is white wine, some berries, mild alcohol as well as some rice and mild sappy and herbal notes. Quite boozy as it warmed up a bit.

Jamedra (754) - Hostivice, CZECH REPUBLIC - MAR 13, 2015Láhev 350 ml. Aroma je opravdu lahodné, připomíná kakaové boby s nádechem zpracované čokolády a oříškové náplně. Barva samotného saké je jasně žlutá. Chuť má v sobě náznaky čokolády s mohutným rýžovým podkladem, okraje jsou jemně nakyslé a finiš je bylinný a držící. Jedná se o vskutku zajímavý zážitek, je to mé první saké tak přesně nevím co od něj očekávat a jak ho správně ohodnotit.
Nocturne (3313) - Cheshire, ENGLAND - JAN 29, 2015350ml bottle. Pale gold pour, zero head. Aroma is like funkier white wine with an acidic vinegar edge and a sweeter side that calls to mind white chocolate. Dry taste with a similar white grape and currant flavour. Slight burn but pretty easy to drink. Has definitely got me intrigued about sake.
