Once referred to as the king of rice for sake brewing, the legendary "Omachi" has now been brought back and polished to 38% before brewing to create "Sakehitosuji Akaiwaomachi Gold Junmai-daiginjo", the pinnacle of sake in the "Sakehitosuji" brand. The taste of sake is decided by the rice used to brew it. Omachi rice has large grains with sizeable cores, and koji bacteria takes well to it, which is why it is regarded as the ultimate rice for making sake, but it is difficult to grow, which lead to dwindling production. For a time it faded to legend until "Omachi" rice was brought back again by this brewery and polished generously to create this sake, filled with the flavor of the rice. At the "International Wine Challenge (IWC)2019", the highest judging authority on wines in the world, the brand was honored with a trophy as the top brand among recipients for the gold medal for Junmai Daiginjo, making it truly one of the top Junmai Ginjo in the world.
