Yamada Nishiki who did not pass the examination because the rice grains were small or missing. Asahi Sake Brewery also reduces the burden on sake rice farmers by buying rice that has been rejected in the screening process.

But,Japanese sake using foreign rice is treated as regular sake no matter how high-spec. This price is as good as DaiginjoIs a common ally!

However, since non-uniformity is produced when polishing the outer rice, the sake using the outer rice will deteriorate faster after bottling.Check the date of manufacture and drink within 3 months after bottling.

Asahi Sake Brewery, who has made sake in a village of Yamaguchi Prefecture with a population of 600, has grown into a well-known SAKE maker worldwide. Recently, we have purchased a site in New York equivalent to 1.6 Koshien Stadium and are working on the construction of an American brewery. The goal is to further expand the SAKE market in the United States and produce Junmai Daiginjo, which can be purchased for the same price as wine that is drunk daily.

The pure rice Daiginjo-class sake made as a prototype of the sake is “uses the US rice calrose 80%”. The remaining 20% uses Yamada Nishiki.

The rice milling rate is the same as 23%, and the same kind of yeast. There were many reviews that tasted on the net is no different.

In addition to 23% milled rice, the “Festival Trial” has 60% and 50%. 50% The rice used for milling is Calrose 100%.

All are 720ml and 1,000 yen, so they are sold out. If you find it, we recommend you buy it immediately!
