Ichinokura Special Junmai Namaishu, which is one of the top ranks of my favorites.

First time in a long time to drink a 20 degree sake. It has a full-bodied flavor unique to the original sake. Even though there is a 5% difference in strength from regular sake, it still feels like it fills my throat. I'll limit myself to one cup today.
