This is the sixth and last bottle of Ishikawa's mini-bottle sake.
It has a slight sweetness on the palate, but it is also rich, dry, and delicious. I had it cold, but next time I would like to try it at room temperature or warmed.

Kuro obi is made for Kuro obi by making several different types of sake with different rice polishing ratios and aging them separately and slowly over time. Each sake is developed to have its own distinctive flavor, and then each sake is batched at the time of bottling. If "blending" is the process of creating a single flavor by complementing each other, "batting" is the process of creating a new flavor by combining independent flavors.
All of the rice used is contract-grown rice
