Description

Omachi rice from Okayama's Akaiwa district, polished to 60%, is fermented using the yamahai method at Nagayamahonke Shuzojo in Ube, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The combination of yamahai lactic fermentation and Omachi's wild, earthy character produces a sake with pronounced acidity, rustic grain depth, and a long savory finish.

[In search of terroir (raw material climate)] Sake is made by [rice], [rice koji] made from rice by craftsmen, and [water]. The raw material for sake is the most important raw material for sake, but there are not many warehouses that actually make rice. The Nagayama Honke Sake Brewery Co., Ltd. established Domaine Co., Ltd. in 2019 in 2019. Today, delicious sake is getting closer, but Japanese agriculture is in a serious shortage of successors. In our sake brewery, sake brewing is performed in winter, and in the summer, young craftsmen are sweating in rice fields and working hard to make sake rice. We don't think that sake is enough if the drink is delicious. The beautiful rural scenery of the town is maintained and the town where local people shine is the original role of sake brewery. The Atsushi River in the Futabase district of Ube -shi, where our sake brewery is located, has Akiyoshidai as a water source. Water, which contains a lot of calcium on the Calst plateau, carries the best minerals for sake. And our craftsmen and partner farmers who make rice together in the northern part of Ube City are growing sake with plenty of Yamada Nishiki raised in hand salt. A sake that has a soft and core rice taste. That is the sake brewing that makes use of your goal [terroir]. [Love raw materials and loved by raw materials], we believe it forever and deliver sake to everyone.
