bouken
Purchased with Tenryo sake cup at Okuhiroya in Kayashima.
They stocked it because it was well received at a Saga sake tasting event held for sake retailers. Probably not normally available in the Kansai region.
The rice is made from Hokkaido's Kitashizuku. I know Nabeshima also uses Kitashizuku.
It has a beautiful sake quality for the rice polishing ratio. There is a slight sweetness, but it is also slightly thin and heavy. It also has a nutty taste. It tastes like nothing else.
