Natural sweetness, fruity aroma, rich in velvety, umami and elegant acidity.

It’s made with all Koji-rice instead of perfect balance of 20% Koji and 80% steamed rice. Good for self aging.

Chinese foods like Mapo tofu　　　

The natural sweetness come from Koji rice firmly accepts the rich beef taste. You can enjoy the melting taste that fuses with the beef in your mouth!!
