I received this sake from Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, as a souvenir. 17 means that the alcohol content is 17 degrees or higher to bring out the best flavor. It was a perfect sake for a meal with a strong umami flavor.

Purchased on a return trip to Hiroshima by taking the Kure Line to a sake brewery in Akitsu; the brewery has recovered from the damage caused by the torrential rains in western Japan in 2018. You don't see it very often outside of Hiroshima. Delicious with a fresh acidity and well-balanced flavor and spiciness typical of nama-shu.

Purchased at a commercial supermarket, a bottle costs just over 1,800 yen. This sake is made by a small sake brewery in Ikoma City, Nara Prefecture. It has a refreshing taste and goes well with any meal. On its own, the sake may be a little lacking. When heated, its acidity and spiciness stand out. It is easier to drink cold and tastes better.
