This Koshihikari is grown in the cool highlands of Aso and nourished by the pure waters of Shirakawa Spring, selected as one of Japan’s 100 Best Waters. Clear spring water and wide day-to-night temperature shifts allow the rice to ripen slowly, building natural sweetness and layered umami.

A clean aroma rises first, followed by gentle depth and a soft, fluffy texture that feels light but satisfying. Clear water and Aso’s distinct climate give this Koshihikari its balance and depth.
