Mitsui no Kotobuki (Miino Kotobuki)

This is a sake that Fukuoka is proud of, and it served as the namesake for that genius shooter. Produced by Miino Kotobuki (formerly Inoue Gomei Kaisha), Mitsui no Kotobuki is famous for being the origin of Hisashi Mitsui's name in the popular manga 'Slam Dunk'. It is said that the author, Takehiko Inoue, was a fan of this sake. The brewery is located in Tachiarai, Mitsui District, an area whose name is said to derive from three wells with clear spring water that once lined the highway used during the Sankin-kotai (alternate attendance) period. The Junmai Ginjo (+14 Dry) features a prominent crispness and is loved nationwide as a food-pairing sake that enhances the flavor of dishes. Even for those who aren't manga fans, it is a single bottle from Fukuoka that can be enjoyed through both its name and its taste.
