The name is written "Saikaze" and reads "Narai". Neither the percentage nor the rice used for sake is disclosed. It is a fall-aged sake. It has a slightly peculiar smoky flavor and a complex aroma and sharpness.

You can tell where I drank it lol. This is an old sake brewed in 1999. The aroma is old wine, but it's not as sharp as I thought it would be. Too interesting.

I have always liked Aozora, but this is my first time to try Miyamanishiki. It has a subtle acidity and a strong umami flavor that is not typical of Aozora, in a good way.

It is also made with Kyoto's sake rice, "Shuku". It has a fresh fruity aroma and a good balance of richness, sharpness, and umami. It is honestly delicious.

Made with Kyoto's sake rice, Kyo-no-Kiraki. It has a mild sweetness, and in a sense, a mellowness that is not typical of jun-dai.

With a sake level of -8 and a 70% ratio, I expected it to be quite sweet, but the sweetness and sharpness coexist, which is rare. The store selling it for 400 yen for a single sake bottle is pretty good, but the brewery selling it for 1,265 yen including tax for a 4-goupe bottle is also amazing.
