Marumoto Sake Brewery Co.,Ltd.

Chikurin

Chikurin sake is made from rice that has gone through a unique process called san’o: the rice is left to wither 3 times before harvesting, producing first-class sake rice. The brewery is located within an officially designated sake rice-growing region, and was the first to be fully organic in its production. There are four blends, the most recent of which is Organic Chikurin Karoyaka. This sake, which has a lovely soft finish on the palate, was the first blend developed after the brewery achieved full organic accreditation in 2007, and in 2009 accredited USDA NOP accreditation.
