“This is, in a word, outstanding. A perfect Junmai Daiginjo, just the right amount of dryness with a perfect finish. Probaby one of the best values on this site..”
“I love a nice and light sake occasionally and this brew was perfect for that. There are notes of melon, pear, and rice and this sake can be drunk on its own, or with sushi like I did. A nice treat for a special occasion.”
“After trying this bottle, I read the tasting notes and some of the reviews to see how my opinion matched up. Seems we all agree! This sake starts with a refreshing and light, almost water like, first sip that then leads to a crisp dryness paired with just the right amount of sweetness. If you have trouble describing what sake tastes like, this is a good example to point toward. I have enjoyed a few different sake from Hakkaisan and recommend trying their other offerings too, as they produce good, solid quality sake at a reasonable price point.”
“Very crisp, dry, and clean sake. The junmai daiginjo is just very basic in a good way. It strikes me as a 'gold standard' by which others can be measured.”
“Hakkaisan “Junmai Daiginjo” has definitely captivated my interest, and become one of my top three favorite Sake. Smooth, Flavorful, still Light and Dry. I could drink it with almost anything. I will surely buy it again”
“This is my all-around Junmai Daiginjo that works perfectly with cold seafood dishes.
I have been trying other high-end Junmai Daiginjo sakes and finally found the one for me with affordability. It is smooth, flavorful, and versatile.”
