...the tough go from the yongobin (四合瓶) the standard bottle of the four go(合), i.e. four 180 ml measures i.e. 720ml to the isshoubin (一升瓶), the standard big bottle of one shou/masu (升) which equals ten go i.e. 1.8 litre. Sake is Honjouzoushu (本醸造酒) by Ura Gasumi (浦霞) from Miyagi, one of the best non-special sake and bottles of this size are usually bought by bars and izakaya but because they are good value for money, if you drink on a more or less regular basis they're practical for home use too. Besides, Golden Week is coming so we'll probably be drinking a little extra!
