[Shichida Pure rice unfiltered 】
Shichida was born in this year, the beginning of the 21st century.
It has a pleasant aroma reminiscent of young bananas and a slightly effervescent, popping texture.
It has a good balance of rice flavor and acidity, and is sweet with a light, crisp taste.
It goes great with chicken-based hot pot dishes.

・About water
The clear underground water springs from the middle of Mt. Tianshan. The Gion River that flows in front of the brewery is a clear stream that collects water from the Tianshan mountain range and is one of the leading Genji firefly villages in Japan.
The "Shimizu Falls" where this underground water flows down has been selected as one of Japan's 100 famous waters, and is an indispensable " treasure water " in the sake brewing of Tenzan Sake Brewery .
This water is medium-hard water that contains no iron and is rich in minerals such as calcium and magnesium, making it ideal for sake brewing.
・About sake rice
Approximately 90 % of the rice used at Tenzan Sake Brewery is locally grown in Saga Prefecture, primarily Yamada Nishiki and Saga no Hana.
We believe that we must be involved in producing good rice, so in 1998 we established the Tenzan Sake Rice Cultivation Research Group with farmers in Saga Prefecture. The group grows Yamada-Nishiki rice under contract, and through study sessions held several times a year, the group improves each other's cultivation techniques, which also helps with traceability, as they work to produce even better sake rice.
