I met Fukugen when I stayed at a place called Saito Ryokan in Shirakone Onsen six years ago. It was the first non-Tohoku sake I had ever tasted (I just didn't know about it, now that I think about it), and no matter how much I looked for it in Tokyo, I couldn't find it, so I gave up and found it at an online store.
I'm sorry for the long preamble, but it tastes clean and easy to drink. The aroma of rice comes on strong and quickly, followed by a mild sweetness that finishes with a spiciness. The aftertaste is quite dry. It is a little different from the impression I had 6 years ago, but it is still good.
