Hokushika Genkanjikomi

🍶
Description

Hokushika Genkanjikomi is brewed by Hokushika Shuzo in Odate, Akita, using the brewery's signature practice of fermenting during the most severe cold of winter, a method called genkanjikomi or strict-cold brewing. Akita's intensely cold winters create ideal low-temperature fermentation conditions that slow the process, allowing complex flavors to develop gradually while minimizing off-flavors. This expression captures the clean, structured depth associated with cold-season Tohoku brewing, crafted from 100% quality Akita-grown rice and local groundwater.
