Description
Hitachi Nishiki rice polished to 65% is fermented using the yamahai method as a full-strength genshu junmai under the Kikumori label from Kiuchi Brewery in Naka, Ibaraki. The traditional yamahai starter builds a robust, complex lactic base, and the genshu format amplifies the resulting depth and body.
