Sekiya Brewery: 2009 Old Sake of Horaisen's Valuable Sake "Sora A treasured sake that has been kept for 10 years while retaining the quality of Daiginjo, Sekiya Brewery's signature product, "Houraisen Sora". It is a beautiful amber color with a pale gold shimmer, which has been slowly matured in low temperature storage. The charm of old sake is its unique aroma called "aged aroma", smoky depth, caramel-like sweetness, and moderate acidity, which is also delicious. I was happy to have encountered it. We finished with takikomi-gohan (rice cooked in an earthenware pot). At Koji MARUTANI in Nagoya

Sekiya Shuzo Horaiizumi Junmai Daiginjo Kuu Nama-nihanzake A hidden sake not even listed in the brewery's lineup. Made from 40% polished Yamadanishiki rice. The premier sake of Houraizumi, "Junmai Daiginjo Sora" is bottled in its unblended state before aging, making it a rare gem. From the refreshing mouthfeel, sweetness and umami fill the mouth, and the fruity aftertaste lingers and ends with a squeaky clean finish. It is a miracle that I was able to drink it 😁. With Genji Wagyu Beef Braided Sauce At Koji MARUTANI in Nagoya
