Sen no Rikyu Special Junmai 60 Gomi Karakuchi 1650 yen (4-pack bottle) As the newest sake brewery in Osaka, we expected a modern sake. There were no good sake under 1500 yen including tax, so we selected a sake from Osaka. I was OK with the price of 1,500 yen without tax.... The mouthfeel was spicy, with a sharp taste that went straight to the nose, just like the subtitle. With cheap sake, it stays in your head and gives you a hangover, but with this sake, the sweetness of the rice is fully brought out, and the spiciness of the spiciness goes away. It's not a "shwashy" type of sake, but a legitimate sake! If possible, I would have liked to pair this sake with sashimi.
