Kumakichi
I was visiting liquor stores in Tokyo, but they were all so crowded that I couldn't seem to drink slowly, so I stocked up at home and toasted Sake Day!
The first bottle was a special Junmai Daiginjo Shizuku-shu from Kawanakajima Genmai, 4,400 yen.
Kawanakajima Genmai is a superb sake for around 1,500 yen, but this bottle of Junmai Daiginjo with the additional time and effort of Shizukutori and tobin enclosure is sure to taste great!
The ginjo aroma is more refined than that of Kawanakajima Genmai, with a sweet, densely packed aroma, and the taste is clean, sweet, and delicious, with no cloying flavors.
This bottle does not come in a box, but it would make a great gift!
