Sake description :

Chiebijin Tokubetsu Junmai Omachi Namazake is a superb Tokubetsu junmai sake brewed by master brewer Nakano, who continues to take on new challenges at one of the breweries in Oita Prefecture. It is bottled in its unprocessed, raw sake form. This masterpiece features a pleasantly resonant, fresh ginjo aroma, a gentle sweetness, and a light acidity. It is characterised by a smooth and transparent finish.

Omachi, the oldest sake rice still in existence in Japan, is known for producing a wild and unique flavour. In recent years, its popularity has surged, leading to the emergence of sake enthusiasts known as "Omachists." On the other hand, this rice is said to be challenging for brewers, earning it the nickname "kurayakeshi" (brewery tormentor).

What the brewery focused on was creating a low-alcohol raw sake with a good flavour balance without adding water. It has a sweetness, but the acidity skilfully tightens the finish.

ちえびじん、大分県内の蔵元の中でも、常に新しい挑戦を続ける蔵元杜氏・中野さんが醸す渾身の特別純米酒は、生の原酒のまま瓶詰めした逸品。心地よく響くフレッシュな吟醸香。ほんのりとした優しい甘みと軽やかな酸。さらさらと透明感のある喉越しが特徴です。

現存する日本最古の酒造好適米・雄町は、野性的かつ個性的な味わいを生み出すため、近年とても人気が高まっており、「オマチスト」なる酒飲みも誕生するほど。その一方で、蔵泣かせで造りも難しいといわれるお米です。

蔵元がこだわったのは、加水をせずとも味のバランスのよい、低アルコールの生原酒。甘みがありつつ、酸が上手に後口を引き締めています。
