We visited Kitaoka Honten, a sake brewery in Yoshino, Nara Prefecture, and were treated to a Daiginjo bottled this month that was obtained by a staff member here and a regular customer.
Mellow and slightly sweet, it was different from the Yatagarasu we had had in the past, and had a very special feel!
