This is Sekiya Jozo's flagship sake.
This honjozo is poured into komodaru (a type of sake barrel used for celebratory events).
It's a dry sake with umami that never tires.
It's good whether served chilled or heated. The container is great as a decoration as well.

A bowl-shaped sake cup is recommended to bring out the sake's umami and sweetness. Earthenware and porcelain cups match well, too.
Fried chicken wings, simmered mackerel, simmered daikon radish and yellowtail, Kanto-style oden (a type of Japanese hot pot), chikuwa fish cake marinated with wasabi and soy sauce, and grilled shio koji-marinated Japanese flying squid.
