kiko
Urasato from Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture, has been gaining popularity recently and is now carried at a nearby liquor store.
It has a fresh, melon-like sweetness with a slightly dry flavor and a nice sharpness on the palate. It is not a summer sake, but it is great for this hot season. Kiri-Tsukuba from the same brewery is also delicious, but this one is more modern.
