Ecru Namazake preserves the vibrant vitality unique to unpasteurized sake, expressing fresh orchard fruit aromas intertwined with delicate lactic notes. On the palate, gentle natural effervescence accompanies a harmonious balance of soft sweetness, crystalline acidity, and pure rice-derived umami, creating a lively yet impeccably refreshing profile.
Viridian Mist, by contrast, features a lightly cloudy appearance that lends a softer, rounder texture with a velvety smooth mouthfeel. Elegant fruit aromas, natural acidity, and rich layers of umami are beautifully integrated, resulting in greater depth, complexity, and a remarkably long, graceful finish.
One vibrant and energetic, the other refined and silky, these two expressions perfectly complement one another. Together, they embody Aramasa's profound understanding of sake rice, terroir, and natural brewing while showcasing the brewery's relentless pursuit of new possibilities in sake. This annual limited-edition release is both a highly collectible set and an exceptional tasting experience.
Aramasa Annual Fermentation Report 2026 Part II – The Wonderful World of Sake Rice continues Aramasa's annual exploration of the character and potential of premium sake rice. The collection features two exclusive expressions—Ecru Namazake and Viridian Mist—each revealing a distinctly different personality born from natural fermentation, offering a captivating interpretation of the remarkable diversity found within sake rice.
