Kawaba Village Rice (Yuki-hotaka)
Once cooked, each grain stands glossy and upright, with a sweet aroma rising along with the steam. The natural sweetness expands with every chew. Even when cooled, it does not become hard, maintaining a chewy umami that ensures its deliciousness remains intact even in rice balls or lunch boxes. Yuki-hotaka is a brand of Koshihikari grown in Kawaba Village. It is nurtured by mineral-rich snowmelt flowing from Mount Tanigawa, one of Japan's top 100 mountains. The land, characterized by significant temperature fluctuations between day and night and excellent sunlight due to its south-facing terrain, is perfect for rice cultivation. Having won gold medals numerous times at international rice tasting and analysis competitions, it is often referred to as 'phantom rice.' It is even said that it has been presented to the Imperial Family during the Niiname-sai (Harvest Festival). This is a proud meal from Kawaba Village, nurtured by pure water and the climate of a mountain village.
