Ishtar
This is the Hokusetsu that Robert De Niro comes all the way to buy in his private jet. I bought it because I thought it would be perfect for New Year's sake. It has a strong aroma, but it is medium dry, so it goes well with food. The mouthfeel is very mellow, and it goes in easily and disappears quickly, leaving only the flavor behind. This is a good sake for special occasions, although it is not usually available at a reasonable price. Ryo
