About
Flavor: Rough-hewn earthy character with powerful acidity Recommended dishes: Cheeses, meat dishes with bold spices Made with Omachi, a native Japanese sake rice grown in Akaiwa City, Okayama Prefecture, this sake has a rustic, earthy character that is its particular appeal. Because Omachi has a large white core (shinpaku), we limited polishing so as not to diminish the rice's character. We hope you will enjoy the toasty aroma of the rice that results. Brewed with traditional yamahai (a yeast-starter method in which naturally occurring lactic acid bacteria drive fermentation), Taka Yamahai Junmai Omachi pairs exceptionally well with dishes made with cheese and butter. It also holds its own, and can be enjoyed equally, with meat dishes seasoned with a variety of spicy condiments, which makes it a rare presence among sake.
