Otokoyama Tokubetsu Junmai "Man's Mountain"

This Tokubetsu Junmai has an earthy yet sweet aromatic nose that borders on ripe fruit. The strength in this Junmai rests in its unmistakable dryness, and its working acidity play. The flavor profile is very solid in the sense that it has a clean viscosity wrapped in a mouthful of dried fruit flavors and subtle earthiness. This is a very user-friendly and dependable sake that is great for beginners, and is well relied upon by old faithfuls.
