Tonoike Yamadanishiki 38 Junmai Daiginjo "Iki"

Limited run on the west coast! If you're thinking about getting this, I'd get this ASAP. -Chris

Paraphrased from the importer Sake Infinity:

"Iki" is a Junmai Daiginjo that encapsulates the soul of the world famous pottery town known as Mashiko in Tochigi Prefecture. Deeply connected to the region's renowned pottery, "Iki" incorporates the essence of "yu" (glaze), a hallmark of Mashiko-yaki. Crafted with premium Yamadanishiki rice, this sake offers a refined and playful taste profile. The palate is graced with note of cotton candy, lychee, and citrus, followed by a zesty lime finish. With each sip, you embark on a sensory journey through Mashiko's rich heritage, where the artistry of pottery and sake converge.
