The_Osprey (10582) - WALES - FEB 27, 2016Bottle shared at One Canada Square as ’Gekkeikan Yuzu Nigori Sake’, 7%. Picked up in a Japanese shop. Separates in the bottle, so requires mixing. Thanks to Leighton for demonstrating the technique. Milky opaque pour, leaves a creamy dotted scummy residue on the glass. Aroma is key lime pie and Calpol. Body is smooth with low carbonation. Taste is pretty sweet yet dry, chalky and powdery, sour yuzu, meringue, tea, touch of booze. Certainly an interesting beverage. Pretty dry and powdery.
