Product details
Harushika hails from Nara Prefecture, rooted in the legacy of the Imanishi family, whose meticulous processes date back to 1884. The name “Harushika,” meaning “Spring Deer,” honors local folklore and the longstanding bond between this region and its revered shrine guardians. Crafted using high-quality Gohyakumangoku rice, it is balanced and exceptionally dry—designed to highlight savory richness and umami in the dining experience.
On the palate, it reveals crisp, think mint, sage, and subtle savory notes—flowing into a clean, star-anise–tinged aftertaste. Another perspective notes mild citrus brightness paired with a smooth, clean-cut finish. This refined profile pairs effortlessly with fresh seafood or delicate raw bites, accentuating natural flavors without overshadowing them.
