Dry Wave has become my "go to sake".
It is not for cooking, it is for sipping, especially while cooking or simply sitting alone.
I had a stroke recently and because I live alone I obviously spend most of my time alone and creature comforts are very important to me. That is one of the reasons I started drinking and collecting sake.
I have never purchased anything bad from Sake Social and "Dry Wave" is beyond description, I recommend to everyone.
My absolute favorite sake....crisp and clean....bright green apple...great with everything!
I think "Dry Wave" will become one of my "go to" sakes. It is crisp, clean, has multiple taste patterns, is easily paired with many foods. I prefer it cold but it does well warm. It is an excellent choice.
I have not tried it yet. I would like it to age a bit longer and then try it.
The sake is good, and seldom seen makers.
Would like more info with the package about the included bottles.
We got a bottle each of this one and the Nigori. I prefer Nigori, but my wife and her bestie like Junmai. Honestly none of us could pick between the two, they were both extremely smooth and just sweet enough. Super enjoyable; would definitely buy again.
I prefer Nigori, so I was excited to try this one. We got a bottle each of this and the Junmai and we all loved them both. This Nigori was quite pleasant and smooth; would definitely buy again.
I brought a bottle of this to a game night for a group tasting and everyone was afraid of shochu from past experiences. This one really surprised the group; super tasty to start and has a really fun aftertaste at the end.
My wife got a bottle of this for a girls' night and absolutely loved it. They said it tasted like a rosé to them; sweet, but not too sweet. I had a sip and found it tame and enjoyable.
Got a bottle of this for a friend's birthday. She loved it, as did her husband who prefers dry saké like this. Rave reviews all around the table. Kanpai!
Like the title said, wonderfully smooth. I'm more of a Nigori person, but several of my Japanophile friends have chosen this saké and have made me a convert. Super smooth and easy to enjoy. There's a reason it's so popular :P
This is a solid Sochu, we tried this with several variations of highballs. The Okinawa method of using coffee -- we added it in an iceball glass with a splash of espresso. Very nice
We tried it was just a smidge of a Vanilla extract that we keep around. Good
We tried it with a splash of cola. Pretty good
Lastly, we tried it with a bit of pepper ume plumb wine to give it a kick. Probably my favorite
Lots of fruits and florals in the base that open up a university of potential combinations. Kamado ginger/garlic scallops with a Sochu Ginger highball was the bomb
I deserve some free bottles at least three good service a little bit pricey
I purchased sake and a pair ceramic sake glasses for a Christmas present and recipient was jubilant in receiving the gift.
No instructions Or explanations and no cups and beakers. Both would have been nice
A bit pricey but its well worth it great cold or hot sweet and thick if you got the spare cash layin around for the holidays i definitely recommend
Very strong sesame taste and higher alcohol content. Not one I would drink daily, more of a sip here and there fir me.
If I could give more stars I would. The shipping was fast and the bottle was in great condition. The sipping may seem pricey but I feel it’s worth it. Overall I’m now buying my sake from here only.
