Product details
Dainagawa Tenka Akita Sake Komachi Twin Hearts is a vibrant expression from Dainagawa’s Tenka Series, crafted with locally grown Akita Sake Komachi rice. The name “Twin Hearts” reflects two connections to Akita: one representing the producer’s appreciation for Akita Komachi culinary rice and the other for its closely related brewing rice, Akita Sake Komachi. Like other expressions in the Tenka Series, Twin Hearts follows Dainagawa’s approach of low-temperature fermentation and extended cold maturation, allowing the carefully selected rice to develop its intended character with precision. This focus on local ingredients, controlled temperatures, and extended maturation highlights Dainagawa’s connection to Akita’s regional rice culture and traditional craftsmanship.
The aroma opens with white flowers, mango, and orange, followed by a creamy, marshmallow-like texture on the palate. Wild strawberry, cotton candy, and juicy stone fruit add layers of fresh fruit character, while a subtle umami richness provides depth toward the finish. Its combination of floral, tropical fruit, soft texture, and gentle savory character makes it well suited to simmered white fish, grilled mackerel, Gouda cheese, and strawberry shortcake.
