Omachi Polishing ratio 60 Sake miraculously rescued from a fire at the Yuki Brewery. It is said that this sake was miraculously rescued from the scene of a fire at the Yuki Sake Brewery.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this sake will be donated to charity. I wanted to buy up a lot of bottles, but I wanted to buy up a lot of bottles, but only two bottles were purchased, as there are many fans of this sake. The other bottle will be left in the wine cellar to age. I would like to drink it when the Yuki Brewery is restored.
