pale straw colour. fresh pineapples, ripe bananas, overripe melon and fennel accents on the nose carry into the mouth. the light sweetness from the entry melds into an agreeable mineral bitter note that dominates the moderately long finish.

From 720 mL labeled 4.2023 Clear colorless Bright bubblegum and melon aromas and flavors, almost a touch of spritz on the first taste which disapated quickly. No heat (15%) and quite soft (water) This is lovely. From one of the few female Tojis

Just a shade of light straw, from a 720 labeled 8.2021. Junmai Ginjo and super soft, fragrant melon and white grape with a long, rather bold finish. Almost a hint of cinnamon. This is really quite good and enjoyable and worth a search. I’d serve cool/cold. From Miho Imada, one of the few female Toji in Japan

Medium plus nose shows dried pineapple, vanilla wafer, sour lemon, fieldgrass. Palate is similar, sour and dry, herbal tones, lots of structure without too much flavor. I'm not the biggest sake fan/drinker. Planning on trying this with bittersweet chocolate, that could be fun.
