Yamagata Prefecture's original "Haenuki" rice
Today, the representative rice of Yamagata Prefecture is "Tsuyahime" and "Yukiwakamaru", but "Haenuki", which was introduced in 1993 as Yamagata Prefecture's original rice, is a great predecessor of these rice varieties.
Although it is a very good rice, it is not so well known, but it is used in rice balls at Seven-Eleven and people are eating it without even knowing it.
Since its release, it has been awarded the highest eating quality rank of "Special A" consecutively, and is one of the representative rice of Yamagata Prefecture both in name and reality.
Summer Unfiltered Unpasteurized Sake Following Nanahoshi
Eiko-Fuji is a junmai ginjo brewed with 100% "Haenuki" rice from Yamagata Prefecture, which is mainly used for food.
It is the second in a series of limited summer sake stars following Nanahoshi, and is now available in an unfiltered, unpasteurized, undiluted form.
The rice polishing ratio is kept at 60% (although it is still too high) as if it were made from edible rice, but it has a clean, uncluttered taste.
It is popular for its smooth taste, which makes it refreshing to drink in summer.
It is a junmai ginjo that can be enjoyed with a wide range of foods.
