Aramasa山吹 タンジェリン
ハヤカワ
Tangerine is a new addition to Shinmasa's "Colors" series of fire-aged sake. The rice used for this sake is "Fukunohana" rice, which was created in 1959 at the Tohoku Agricultural Experiment Station. In Akita, Fukunohana was introduced after Koso-Shinko, and was cultivated actively for a while, but was replaced by Miyamanishiki, and its cultivation disappeared. Fukunohana is a relatively soluble rice that produces a sake with a broad flavor, but it also has the delicacy and wildness typical of rice from the Tohoku region. This sake also has a bright acidity and a smooth flavor.
