KITCHORAKU Snow Crystal Minamiuonuma-Koshihikari 1kg

Made exclusively with contract-grown rice from the Minamiuonuma area, widely regarded as the most highly esteemed region within Uonuma. After harvest, the rice is stored year-round at below 5°C in a snow cellar warehouse holding over 700 tons of natural snow, preserving freshness at the grain level, and gently milled under low temperatures using the Snow-Temperature Process. This careful low-temperature milling enhances the rice’s natural aroma, luster, and refined, clear sweetness without compromising its original character. After milling, the rice is sealed in freshness-preserving nitrogen-filled packaging to retain the flavor of freshly milled rice. Even in Europe, you can enjoy the taste as if it were freshly milled in Japan. A Minamiuonuma-grown Koshihikari that allows you to experience the prestige of its origin at the everyday table.
