About

A standard sake from Juhachizakari, made with Okayama-grown Akebono rice. In the old sake grading system, this would have been classed as nikyu (second grade). People often said, "Tohachi (the affectionate nickname) is better as a nikyu, you know." Warm it (kan) and enjoy it with your evening drink every night.
