Nakanoto Doburoku

This is a cloudy sake traditionally offered to the gods in Nakanoto Town. Doburoku is an alcohol made by fermenting rice, rice koji, and water without straining the mash. Since ancient times, it has been regarded as a 'sacred sake offered to the gods' during ceremonies for praying for bountiful harvests and expressing gratitude for the harvest. While only a very small number of shrines nationwide are permitted to brew doburoku for Shinto rituals, three of them are located in Nakanoto Town, continuing traditions that date back to before the feudal era. In 2014, the town was designated as a national 'Doburoku Special Zone,' allowing even farm stays (nokoya) to brew it. It is a simple yet powerful drink where the sweetness of the rice blends with the acidity of fermentation. Please enjoy the very essence of Noto's festival atmosphere.
