Most rice strains grown in Japan today are modern hybrids, but Omachi rice was discovered in Okayama Prefecture in 1866. It is the only strain to have been cultivated without a break for so long. We aim to brew for nuts and herbs rather than a floral style, with an undercurrant of fruit. Like most Tamagawa products, this is very much a food sake, with a particular affinity for the "wild" vegetables (rape flowers, bamboo shoots, bracken and so on) prized in spring.
