Honjōzō-shu is usually the least expensive because it doesn't require highly polished rice, so less rice is necessary to make an easy-drinking versatile sake. Ban Ryu translates into "10,000 Ways," meaning there are thousands of sake expressions and just as many ways to enjoy them. Everyone will like this light, crisp, fruity sake that's good chilled or heated and pairs well with savory, fried, acidic, or sweet dishes.
