The best sake I ever had was from a Japanese friend whose brother was the personal ski instructor to the emperor of Japan. This was in the early 80s. She gave me about a half gallon of it in a little wooden barrel. It was amazing. It was very dry but had a syrupy viscosity. I later found out it was something like $500. per little wooden barrel.
I really had no idea, she was so casual about it and uninterested in it. "I don't really care for it." was what she said.
