Description

A Kimoto Junmai namagenshu brewed from Wataribune rice at Kitajima Shuzo in Shiga, combining an ancient lactic-acid starter method with an heirloom grain. Wataribune is the predecessor variety to Omachi rice, and the kimoto method adds a pronounced acidity and earthy depth to this undiluted, unpasteurized release.
