From the disitributor:
“
Chiebijin Tokubetsu Junmai Omachi Namazake is a superb Tokubetsu junmai sake brewed by master brewer Nakano, who continues to take on new challenges at one of the breweries in Oita Prefecture. It is bottled in its unprocessed, raw sake form. This masterpiece features a pleasantly resonant, fresh ginjo aroma, a gentle sweetness, and a light acidity. It is characterised by a smooth and transparent finish.
Omachi, the oldest sake rice still in existence in Japan, is known for producing a wild and unique flavour. In recent years, its popularity has surged, leading to the emergence of sake enthusiasts known as “Omachists.” On the other hand, this rice is said to be challenging for brewers, earning it the nickname “kurayakeshi” (brewery tormentor).
What the brewery focused on was creating a low-alcohol raw sake with a good flavour balance without adding water. It has a sweetness, but the acidity skilfully tightens the finish.”
