This pure rice sake is made of a rare rice species of “Hatsushimo,” which is one of our local signature products and called the “rice of dreams.” Hatsushimo rice is tasty and sticky when cooked, which contributes to bringing out the umami of this sake. When warmed, the taste becomes softer and deeper. Gifu Prefecture does not face the sea; instead, it is blessed with food from the mountains and fish from clean rivers. Usuzumizakura is a pure rice sake that perfectly matches these gifts from nature. Enjoy it with grilled ayu (sweetfish), stewed fish in sugar and soy sauce, tempura of edible wild plants, foods seasoned with red bean paste and more.
