This Iwamiginzan Junmai Ginjo from Ichinomiya Shuzo uses Kairyo Hattan Nagare, a rare local rice variety from Shimane Prefecture sometimes called the phantom sake rice due to its limited cultivation and historical near-extinction. Kairyo Hattan Nagare is a refined variant of the traditional Hattanso lineage, developed to improve brewing performance while retaining the distinctive regional character of the parent strain. Fermented as a junmai ginjo, this sake expresses the full potential of Shimane's indigenous rice heritage alongside the fragrant, clean profile of ginjo-level production.
