Shi-no-no-nozo" is brewed with the brewery's philosophy of "indigenous production climate and the spirit of prayer".
This bottle is brewed with "*Homase" rice from Edo Higo, which can be said to be the starting point of the brewery's philosophy.
Homase" is a native variety of Kumamoto rice from the Edo period, miraculously restored in recent years and grown naturally on the company's own farmland and by farmers in the Kikuchi River system.
It has a gorgeous aroma reminiscent of banana and pineapple, and nuances created by the benefits of the land and the diversity of microorganisms including yeast, which overlap and resonate as a complex flavor that is truly unique.
In addition, the Kikuchi River basin, the site of a rice culture that has continued for 2,000 years, is enriched by the rock water that gushes through the bedrock layers formed by the Aso eruption 90,000 years ago, enriching the rice production and people's lives in the area. It is precisely because the land has benefited from this historic land of production, which has been recognized as a Japanese Heritage site, that "Homase" rice is so richly harvested that it is said to be the best rice under heaven.
