I found this sake at a liquor store in the basement of Isetan when I went to Kyoto the other day. SYNAPSE" by Takeno Shuzo I've never seen this sake before, but the label was so cool that I bought it on impulse. It's a rather expensive sake, about 5,000 yen for a 4-gallon bottle. The aroma is a gentle, mild ginjo scent. When you put it in your mouth, it has a slight foaming sensation and a juicy melon-like taste. After drinking it, it is light and goes in easily without any miscellaneous taste. It is not too sweet and has a crisp throat. The aroma that lingers behind disappears beautifully. It is a recent ginjo type sake, but I think it goes well with food. It is expensive, so I don't buy it all the time, but when I go to Kyoto and find it, I definitely want to buy a bottle. Delicious!
