About

Tsuchida99 is a sake that lets you experience how the amount of koji (malted rice) can greatly change the character of the sake. The focus is on the time spent making the koji, known as seikiku jikan (koji-making time). This sake has a koji-making time of 49 hours. You may wonder whether a difference in koji-making time really changes the taste. But this sake is one that has never appeared even in textbooks, and it may become an important element for sake. We hope you will be present for this moment as a new page of history is opened.
