Melon in the Breeze

Man this sake is a trip. It’s like pouring creamy melon juice with a hit of toasty grain. Bold but so smooth you barely notice the alcohol. It’s got this crisp mineral snap at the end that keeps you coming back. Feels upscale but totally chill.

Interesting but not everyday

Definitely a bold one. It’s got this rich, layered feel that kind of lingers in a good way. Not super light or fruity, more on the serious, complex side. I liked it, just not something I’d reach for every time.
