Miyagi Prefecture is renowned for its rice production, and this sake is brewed using locally grown Manamusume rice. Balanced in both acidity and the umami of the rice, it can be enjoyed chilled to highlight its refreshing sharpness or warm to bring out its gentle sweetness.

Tōhoku
Tōhoku consists of six prefectures located in the north-east of Honshu island. This region is known for its hot spring (onsen) resorts, colourful festivals, remote sacred mountains and harsh winters. In 2011, the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit the region hard; however, the massive efforts in reconstruction are proof of the people’s resilience. Urushi (lacquer) ware, ironware and the crafting of kokeshi dolls make up but a few of the local industries in this lesser-visited region of Japan.
