This Tokubetsu Junmai from Aoki Shuzo is brewed with Yamadanishiki polished to 65%, a level that retains more of the rice's outer layers to contribute body and an earthy, grain-forward character. At the Uonuma brewery established in 1717, the cold-climate environment and soft snowmelt water support a slow fermentation that draws out the natural umami of the rice at this relatively high polishing ratio.
