A special sake made from 99% koji rice

Tastes like: sweet, sour, light, refreshing

Sake is usually made with an average of 20% koji rice. But this is Tsuchida we are talking about and of course they will try to push the boundaries and create a sake with 99% koji rice! It's a very technical, time consuming and challenging brew.

But why 99% and not 100% koji rice? What is with the last 1%? Because sake as defined by the Liquor Tax Act must contain steamed rice or else it's no longer sake. That last 1% is steamed rice.

This is a limited 99 version called Midori. Midori means green in Japanese and this is a lighter, easier to drink version than the normal 99.
