Awards
Kura Master2019 Junmai Daiginjo Division Gold
Once known as the emperor of sake rice, production of ""Omachi"" has been revived, and the Junmai-daiginjo made from the kernel polished to 40% is Sakehitosuji Akaiwaomachi Junmai-daiginjo. The Karube area of Okayama prefecture where this brewery is located has long been known for Omachi rice. This 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. This sake is made from the generously polished grain of that rice, and you can enjoy the mouth-filling round taste of the Omachi. At the most authoritative Japanese Sake Competition in France, the ""KURA MASTER 2019"", it was selected for the gold medal in the Junmai Daiginjo sake category, and it is a Junmai-daiginjo highly regarded throughout the world.
