We purchased this wine at Tachihara Sake Shop in Joetsu City last fall.
First prize in the International Wine Challenge SAKE category - Honjozo
It has a sweet, mild umami taste with a surprisingly dry aftertaste.
We had it with Kurose yellowtail sashimi from a nearby supermarket that serves great fish, and a 7-Eleven squid and cucumber with a deliciously spicy sauce 😃.
