Crowdfunding "Enjoy Japanese Sake Like a Trip" - Enjoy sake from all over the world at home! The sixth one is the Yamaguchi Prefecture otters. It is a famous brand that goes without saying. It is the most famous brand in Yamaguchi prefecture; Otters are too famous for their famous sake. Otters were my favorite sake to drink more than a decade ago... but my memories of Otters are... (1) A friend of mine from Yamaguchi Prefecture told me that people in Yamaguchi don't drink Otters. There are many more good sake breweries in Yamaguchi. (2) After being told by an acquaintance from Yamaguchi Prefecture that "people in Yamaguchi don't drink Otters in Yamaguchi because there are many more good sake breweries in the region," I have somehow stopped reaching for Otters. (2) My husband, who is going on a business trip overseas, told me he wanted to make sure I bought some otters as a souvenir. I told him that there are many other delicious otters in Japan, but he replied that otters are the best choice for overseas consumption. It's not because it's a popular and high-class brand, or because it's delicious, but because it's a good souvenir. The otters were nominated by the customers, saying that this would make business talks go more smoothly (not so much now, but at the time the otters were very popular). The fact that I had to stand in line before the store opened to buy a limited number of otters once a month (due to a shortage of stock).

So I haven't had an otter for a long time... but I haven't had one in a long time with this crowdfunding effort. I'm going to drink it. I was surprised when I took a sip. I wondered if it was ever so mellow and full of rice flavor.

With all due respect, I have the impression that the old Otters Festival was a drink aimed at girls who were new to sake and foreigners. I was very impressed with this drink. However, I thought this sake was really good for the Japanese people.

The aroma was subdued, but the rice flavor was gentle yet imposing, making it a good foodie drink. This sake was created by young people for this crowdfunding campaign. This sake is made by young people with their love for sake, and is not limited by conventional thinking.

Good evening! It's true that I don't drink otters. I only drank it once in a while before I got hooked on sake, but after I got hooked, I just don't feel like drinking it. It's like (laughs)

But after reading akk^o^'s review, I thought it might be a good idea to drink it after a while!  And the last time I saw it, the Corona was sold out everywhere for a blended sake that wasn't to be beaten by Corona (´×ω×`).
