Product details
Juyondai Tokujo Omachi Nakadori is an exceptionally rare release that highlights the relentless pursuit of perfection behind the Juyondai name. Crafted using only top-grade “Tokujo” Omachi—representing just a fraction of all Omachi grown—this expression reflects years of dedication from both growers and the house itself. First successfully cultivated by Okayama farmers in 2018 and not achieved again until years later, this rice selection underscores the difficulty and prestige of the project. Omachi, discovered in the wild in 1869, is one of the last remaining heirloom rice strains, prized for the depth and individuality it brings. Through precise selection of the finest middle portion of the pressing, this release embodies purity, refinement, and Juyondai’s unmistakable elegance.
The tasting experience is aromatic and beautifully nuanced, opening with delicate floral tones and a gentle lift that feels both graceful and composed. Subtle layers unfold with depth and complexity, revealing a soft, rounded texture and a refined sense of balance. The character remains light on its feet yet quietly expressive, finishing with Juyondai’s signature whisper-like close that lingers with finesse rather than force. Elegant and contemplative, this release offers a rare opportunity to experience Omachi at its most polished and expressive form.
