Product details
Hailing from Okuda Shuzoten in Japan’s Akita Prefecture, this creation embodies decades of dedication to craftsmanship and tradition. Polished from Yamada Nishiki rice to 50% of its original size, it showcases the meticulous care invested in every step of production. A standout feature is the use of a special yeast strain, MS3, plucked from the wooden beams of the brewery itself. This unique element brings forward a harmonious interplay of natural umami and delicate aromatics, resulting in a refined beverage that expresses the essence of its origin and the artistry of its makers.
The nose offers gentle aromas of freshly cut fruits, inviting and delicate. On the palate, it is light, dry, and endlessly drinkable, with a clean and refreshing texture. Versatile in presentation, it can be enjoyed chilled to highlight its crisp qualities or gently warmed to body temperature, revealing deeper, mellow nuances. It pairs beautifully with foods such as tarako, ikura, karasumi, uni, seafood hotpot, and a range of game and white fish, making it an elegant choice for both special occasions and everyday enjoyment.
