This Honjozo has a mild banana-like aroma with a great sharpness.
It has a more evolved flavor than Atago no Matsu Honjozo, as it has the ability to wash down dishes and enhance the next dish.
You will enjoy it until the very last glass.
-The secret story behind the birth of the separately brewed honjozo
In the days of the old brewery, there was a tank in which only the very best quality was produced, and that was tank No. 63.
The sake brewed in the No. 63 tank was sold as "separately brewed" and that was the beginning of its birth. The name "Sixty-three" is also written on the label strip.
Currently, we offer selected quality sake as Betsujikomi Honjozo. (From Shinzawa Brewery's website)
We had this at Kimboshi in Akihabara. It was a very nice restaurant with reasonable prices for both food and sake.
Personally, my favorite sake from the Shinzawa Brewery is an oddball called Hiryu, but this Atago no Matsu was refreshing and delicious.

Kuu-san, nice to meet you😄I am commenting because I agree with your sentence that Hiryu is my favorite sake at Shinzawa Sake Brewery. I too love Hiryu and Hakurakusei two-top. I️ will try my hand at this Atago no Matsu when I find it.

@Wakata.
Wow! There are Hiryu lovers here too!
I love Hiryu, but for some reason, it seems to be more than Atago no Matsu and Hakurakusei.............................
I like all of the Shinzawa Brewery's brews, they are all delicious!
