Product details
Born in the snow-covered mountains of Niigata, this creation captures the quiet strength and purity of its homeland. Inspired by the legendary “Yuki Otoko” — the snow yeti said to protect lost travelers — it embodies both resilience and compassion. Crafted during the coldest months of winter, it reflects the patience and precision of Niigata artisans who transform local rice and pristine mountain water into a smooth, balanced expression. A portion of all proceeds supports mountain rescue efforts, honoring the spirit of the guardian that inspired it.
Delicate and inviting, it opens with soft notes of citrus and freshly steamed rice. The texture is silky yet refreshing, offering a light sweetness that lingers before giving way to a crisp, clean finish. Gentle in character but full of quiet depth, it pairs beautifully with tempura, fried oysters, tofu, or simply a bowl of warm edamame — dishes that echo its calm, wintry grace.
