A Taste of Aomori’s Heritage – Denshu Kojonoshiki Tokubetsu Junmaishu.
Experience a rare piece of liquid history with the Denshu Kojonoshiki (田酒 古城乃錦). This special expression from Nishida Shuzo is brewed exclusively using Kojonoshiki, a legendary sake rice variety from Aomori that was once nearly extinct. Revived by the brewery’s dedication to terroir, this rice produces a sake with a soul unlike any other.
As a Tokubetsu Junmaishu, it carries the classic Denshu hallmark of purity—brewed with only rice, water, and koji—but with a unique flavor profile derived from this heritage grain.
Tasting Notes & Profile:
The Rice Story: Kojonoshiki rice offers a more robust, rustic, and complex flavor structure compared to modern varieties.
