Kozaemon Okome no Chikara Hidahomare Nama

Kozaemon Okome no Chikara Hidahomare Nama is made of ungraded Hidahomare rice milled to 70%. This posed a high hurdle to the tōji but resulted in a pleasing aroma you wouldn't expect from non-premium rice.

The Power of Rice evokes images of a lemon orchard: a fruity nose with the characteristic rice aroma of Hidahomare, accompanied by solid hints of citric fruits, pear, and green apple. Mild entry with a creamy texture that transitions into a burst of citric flavours reminiscent of lemons and grapefruit. The crisp mouthfeel reveals a complex array of flavours, featuring the umami of the rice, acidity, and an astringent bitterness that completes the experience.

The powerful and untamed character of the ungraded Hidahomare rice results in a vivid and reinvigorating sake that can be perfectly paired with more savoury food.
