How precious this Sake is!  Fresh, tender and delicate.  The sake was just bottled early in the morning and delivered to my house.  Thank you so much for sharing your fine Sake. I have never had such big impact before.

Sierra Nevada Torpedo

Tom brought back this bottle from the States. No wonder it has strong aroma of hopes and its taste. The label says extra IPA.   So many different beer in different places. We are fond of beer too!
