Product details
Akita Dewatsuru Nugudamaru draws on decades of tradition from Akita, where it has been cherished for over 40 years. Created with a focus on comfort, richness, and regional character, this beloved expression embodies the warmth and gentle charm of its local roots. Its name, “Nugudamaru,” comes from the Akita dialect and conveys the idea of “warming up,” reflecting the soothing nature that has made it a long-time favorite. Defined by its soft, clouded appearance and plush texture, it offers a deeply satisfying experience rooted in craftsmanship and cultural heritage.
The profile opens with sweet, mellow notes reminiscent of honeyed milk, cornflakes, and fresh melon, gradually deepening into subtle savory undertones that add balance and dimension. Its lush, velvety body enhances these flavors, creating a full and comforting mouthfeel. Enjoyable at a range of temperatures, it delivers both clarity and warmth, leaving a gentle, lingering finish. Its rounded character pairs beautifully with simple, flavorful foods such as dried seafood, fish roe, or cheese-based snacks, enhancing its soothing and welcoming personality.
