This is a very refined sake with flavors and aromas that are subtle and soothing. It's wonderful near a warm fireplace in the evening after a long day on the ski slopes. Subtle aromas reminiscent of French vanilla ice cream and cardamom lead into a soft, creamy palate with silky texture and flavors of lightly seasoned cream of wheat and honeydew. At room temperature, baking spice aromas and flavors become prominent and the palate is even creamier.$11.95 Bottle -
