From Aramasa Shuzo's top-tier lineup, the extraordinarily rare "Astral Plateau," here's "Nomin Geijutsu Gairon," brewed with Rikuu 132 rice. A green-apple acidity, a dense sweetness like fully ripe apples, a rich fullness carrying the bitterness of Kyoho grapes, and faint nuances of honey and sesame. In the way this multilayered, captivating flavour harmonises rather than clashes, you can taste everything that the relationship between people and nature weaves together through rice farming.
