Omachi rice is hard to grow, especially if you do it organically, as Akishika does. Kimoto is an ancient, back-breaking way to make a starter mash. Together they produce a rich, rounded and ricey brew with a firm acidity.

What you can expect:

Aroma of wood, great balance of sweetness and acidity. Complex.
