Product details
This Aiyama Jomorohaku is crafted by Takagi Shuzo, an artisan house founded over four centuries ago in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, devoted to elevating the unique characteristics of Aiyama rice. This expression springs from their signature “Jomorohaku” line—a designation that underscores extremely high polishing of both koji and base rice, resulting in exceptional clarity and finesse. The rice variety Aiyama is known for its exceptional solubility and deep rice sweetness, offering a lush body balanced by a lively acid tension that lends an overall impression of harmony and refinement. Brilliantly clear with a soft sheen, showcasing a weightless yet luxurious texture that speaks of meticulous selection and artisanal tradition.
On the nose, this offering reveals a captivating bouquet of ripe pear, honeydew melon, banana cream and pineapple, all softened by subtle white-flower notes and a hint of steamed rice fragrance. The palate is rich and layered—silky and smooth—with generous fruit sweetness balanced by finely tuned acidity and an elegant umami depth. Flavours of tropical fruit, custard, and a whisper of spice unfold with precision, while a delicate mineral undercurrent brings focus and poise to the finish, which lingers long with melon and clean minerality echoing gently.
