There was a picture! 💦
This is a very special bottle that you can rarely find.
It is a junmai daiginjo brewed to be entered in a national sake competition, and bottled with only a small amount of "shizuku" (drop) collected by bag suspension.
As the name suggests, this sake was truly worthy of the "Ohtori" celebration.
When you put the glass close to the bottle, the gorgeous aroma spreads out in a flurry.
It was beautiful, reminiscent of white flowers or ripe fruit, and the aroma alone was enough to make me happy.
The mouthfeel is soft and transparent, and the umami that spreads from there is mellow and delicate.
It finishes with a smooth and elegant aftertaste.
The top-grade Yamada-Nishiki from Hyogo Prefecture is polished to 35%.
This is the pinnacle of Hououmida, with its materials and techniques polished to the utmost.
It is a perfect gift and a perfect "personal favorite," a true gem of a bottle.
