Reihou is a rice variety from Fukuoka, but Nagasaki is a major production area. As the brand name "Fukkai" suggests, this bottle evokes images of sea breezes and the ocean. It is an excellent match with seafood, especially with sashimi, white fish, and Hirado's local cuisine, but it is also well-balanced and quite drinkable on its own.
By the way, it is treated as dessert today (laugh).
