Shichida Limited Edition Sake
Made with local Yamadanishiki from the Eriyama area
Limited "Junmai Ginjo" made with local Yamada Nishiki from the Eriyama area.
Ogi, the home of Tenzan Shuzo, where Shichida is brewed, is located in the Eriyama district.
The area's breathtaking scenery of approximately 600 terraced rice paddies has been selected as one of the "100 best terraced rice paddies in Japan.
Around the end of September every year, bright red higanbana (cluster amaryllis) bloom in profusion, dyeing the rice paddies red and creating an autumnal scene that is said to be one of the most beautiful in Japan.
This time, a limited edition sake with a label depicting this autumn scene is available.
The cool Oku-tanada rice paddies at an elevation of 400 meters are a good site for growing Yamada-Nishiki, preventing poor growth due to high temperatures.
The terraced rice paddies are used for agriculture, and the crops grown in the paddies, houses, surrounding waterside and satoyama form a rural landscape in harmony.
This sake is made to preserve the beautiful scenery of this hometown for the future.
The color is clear, the aroma is soft and sweet, and the mouthfeel is reminiscent of strawberries, with a refreshing and delicious aftertaste!
