Otokoyama, known for its dry taste, has gone the other way and made this sake. It is a sweet sake, and is more like a syrup made from rice. But it is a good introduction to sake, like ume (plum) wine.

Sweet, sour and juicy. The 12% alcohol content makes it light and easy to drink. It is probably better suited to be enjoyed alone than with food. The label and the name are very Evangelion-like. There is a preview of the next episode on the back of the bottle.
