Kokuryu Shizuku (黒龍 しずく) - a daiginjo (大吟醸) with semaibuai (精米歩合) of 35%. This was nice and sharp, clearly much drier and spicier. But as I noticed last time, the Shizuku isn't terribly complex...and was outclassed by No. 88 in this respect.
Kokuryu No. 88 (黒龍 八十八号) - a daiginjo (大吟醸) with semaibuai (精米歩合) of 35%. This was smooth and sweet initially, before the ice bucket lowered the temperature significantly, and then turned drier as it got cold. This is a much better buy compared to the Shizuku.
