SAKE

SAWANOTSURU DELUXE SAKE

Futsushu (普通種) is sometimes referred to as table sake. The rice has barely been polished (somewhere between 70 and 93 percent), and — while we're definitely not qualified to be sake snobs — is the only stuff we would probably recommend staying away from. Surprisingly, you can get really good-quality sake for very reasonable prices, so unless you're looking for a bad hangover (and not-so-special flavor), stay away from futsushu.
