About

With a sharp, clean finish and a faint touch of acidity, this is the driest junmai sake in the Otokoyama lineup. Its name comes from Utagawa Kuniyoshi's ukiyo-e print 'Seichu Gishin Meimeikagami' (Loyal Retainers' Mirror), which depicts the Ako Forty-Seven Ronin drinking Otokoyama sake. Overseas, it is sold under the name 'Tokubetsu Junmai Otokoyama.' Its excellent match with sushi and sashimi has helped it grow into a 'SAKE' sought after around the world.
