Product details
This refined expression comes from the venerable house that brought the traditional Japanese rice-liquid art form to California. Working with certified organic Calrose rice polished to 60 %, the makers have chosen to preserve vibrant character by opting for micro-filtration instead of heat treatment. The result is a clear, lively form that reflects both modern purity and cherished heritage: a creation rooted in local grain, full authenticity, and a commitment to natural expression.
On the palate you’ll notice comforting aromas of corn flakes and banana-bread hanging above a rich, savory body. Flavors of macadamia nuts and mild spice unfold mid-stream, and just as you think it might settle, a hint of cocoa lingers through the finish. Perfectly matched with cold soba noodles, elegant sushi (including mackerel), broiled lobster without butter or thinly sliced smoked duck, it brings depth and balance to each bite.
