Tottori Local Sake (Gouriki Rice)

This is a sake born from a unique Tottori sake rice that once vanished and was brilliantly brought back to life. 'Gouriki' is a sake-brewing rice variety that originated in Tottori during the Taisho era. Because the plants grow tall and are difficult to cultivate, they temporarily disappeared during the Showa era, but were successfully revived in 1989 through prefectural initiatives. It is one of the few types of rice that can be polished down to below 35%, producing sake with a powerful, full-bodied flavor. Breweries across Tottori use this rice to brew their own uniquely characterful sakes. Each grain holds the story of its revival, making this a cup truly unique to Tottori. Please take your time to savor its rich, satisfying umami. You can experience the profound depth of Tottori's local sake in every sip.
