Rice - Yamada Nishiki 🌾 山田锦 Color - Light Green Aroma - 🍌, melon, steam 🍚 Taste - Light Umami - Medium First impression - Lively Body - Light Sweetness - Medium Sweet Tail/length - Short Overall - It is my first time trying sake from Sanzen. Very Good sake. Made from 100% Yamada Nishiki rice (commonly used to brew Ginjo & Daiginjo grade 🍶), the distinctive aroma of 🍌 and melon says it all. With medium sweetness, it was a hit with the lady guests when I bought this 🍶 to a 🇧🇷 Churrasco dinner last Friday. With so much roasted 🍖 on the table, this light body and medium umami 🍶just kept us going all night. Served at Suzu Hie temperature, it really enhances the fruity aroma finish of the 🍶. Highly recommended if you are looking for something medium 🍭 and appealing to ladies. Also good for first time drinkers of 🍶
