Product details
Bocho Tsuru is a graceful expression rooted in Yamaguchi Prefecture, crafted with rice grown exclusively by the contracted farmers of Farm Tsuru no Sato. The fields, known for welcoming migrating cranes each year, follow a reduced-pesticide approach that prioritizes harmony with nature and the surrounding ecosystem. Using carefully cultivated Yamada Nishiki rice from this unique environment, Bocho Tsuru is shaped to highlight purity, balance, and depth. Its character is defined by softness paired with underlying strength, revealing a refined profile that reflects both thoughtful agriculture and meticulous craftsmanship.
The palate opens with a rounded texture, gentle sweetness, and smooth acidity that flow seamlessly together. As it develops, a delicate yet expressive umami spreads elegantly across the mouth, offering warmth and depth without heaviness. The finish is calm and lingering, leaving a quiet impression that invites another sip. Its subtle complexity pairs beautifully with dishes such as shrimp tempura or a comforting cod and tofu hot pot, allowing both the food and the drink to shine in balance.
