Echino Kanme Seishu.

Echino Kanme Seishu.

It is a very famous liquor. It used to be a premium sake, but now the price is normal. This is also 1,000 yen. It is labeled as produced in Kameda-go and Oeyama. The label says the sake is made from 1001 TP3 tons of "Gohyakumangoku" sake rice produced in Oeyama, Echino Kanmei's hometown. Since the brewery is located in Niigata City's Konan district, the rice must be from Kameda!
It is very different from the one we tasted at the Ponshu-kan in Echigo-Yuzawa. I felt that this is Niigata's light and dry, this is the real Echino Kanme.
