Crop / Omachi Rice Polish 50%

720ml 1.8L

An emblematic cuvee honoring the rice used,it is worked according to the same principles as Eau du Désir using ahigher-temperature fermentation which allows the extraction of primary aromas.

In these conditions the Omachi reveals allits power, its ample and fatty profile. The aromas of mushrooms derived fromthe powerful koji, give way to undergrowth and ripe fruit at the end. With lesstension than Yamadanishiki, it surprises by its volume, which comes to invadeeach area of the palate. A gorgeous sake but which discreetly uses the codes ofJunmai Daiginjo.

Omachi is the oldest sake rice, discoveredover 100 years ago and was named Ni Hon Kusa by the discerning stroller whodiscovered it. Indeed the latter noticed the particular aspect of this wildrice, longer than the average, and brought back two stalks.

Its characteristic size, making itsusceptible to lodging, has led to it being described as the man who stands inthe rice fields, and following bad weather, the man bent over during his labor.
