This bottle over delivers on price - great value! Steamed rice and grapefruit aromas lead to a complex nose which is fun. It’s silky smooth texture, heavy on the mineral side, but pairs well with some great Asian spices and fried foods. — 4 years ago

Otokoyama Tokubetsu Junmai “Sushi Booster” — Otokoyama, Hokkaido
A tokubetsu junmai from Otokoyama in Hokkaido - 300ml at 15% ABV and is explicitly positioned as a sushi-pairing sake (“Sushi Booster”). It’s clean, crisp and dry. Had it first which I think was the right move. Supposedly was developed with input from sushi chefs to pair cleanly with sushi. I caught a bit of banana. Bottled June 2025. Great to have them fresh. — a month ago
