Limited edition of 300 bottles. The aroma is quite fruity at first, and at that point it sets it apart from the usual Tajima Nama Nama Sake. The mouthfeel is of course fruity and delicious! I prefer this one just as a sake. I thought the sweetness would fight each other when paired with crab, but it didn't. It was delicious after all.
I had tasted it at the liquor store during the day, and it was so good that I was considering buying it, but then I had other plans, so I had to leave for a while. I promised the liquor store owner that I would definitely come back, but my plans were running quite late and it was dusk when I got back. I thought they might have sold out, but I was super lucky to find only one bottle left! It was not from ......, but from Totsan, who had kept it for me. I'm sure I've encountered many rude people who wouldn't come back with a verbal promise, but this was the moment when I realized that this sense of duty and humanity is one of life's greatest pleasures. To top it all off, Totsan's feelings were added to the sake, and it was the best sake I have ever tasted.
If you are ever in Kinosaki Onsen, Hyogo, stop by Okamoto Sake Shop. You will meet a pleasant sake lover, Mr. Okamoto. It's a once-in-a-lifetime encounter.
It is light and dry. I was told it was limited to 1,200 bottles and bought it immediately. I was told that it was made to go well with crab, and it certainly does. The synergistic effect of washing away the tartness of crab makes it possible to drink as much as you want and eat crab. It is quite crisp and clear, so it goes well with a full-bodied food.

Tajima's Super Special Daiginjo Kiwami.
This sake is quite concentrated in flavor and has a depth and fullness of flavor, but it is easy to drink. I drank the entire glass (90 ml) in no time. The marriage with Tajima beef was the most wonderful time. @ Restaurant Ruane, Hotel EN, Takeda Castle Castle Town
A friend gave me a bottle from a drinking comparison set.
I drank it at a temperature of about Hanakairo, but I think I like Junmai sake at room temperature, lukewarm or hot.
100% Yamada-Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture is used. In the mouth, it is more crisp and dry than mellow. I really feel that Yamada-Nishiki does not change its sharpness even if it is made into a Daiginjo. My aunt bought this for me when I went on a trip to Hyogo Prefecture. It is not cheap because it is a daiginjo, but it is so delicious that it is not overpriced. It was a bottle that made me feel the underlying power of Yamada-Nishiki.
