The aroma bursts with luscious banana and pineapple notes — elegant, layered, and gently sweet. Upon tasting, Nichinichi’s signature fine bubbles bring a delicate sparkle that intertwines smooth sweetness and refreshing acidity in perfect harmony. The body is clear and supple, carrying soft umami and a tender mouthfeel. Its clean, fluid finish glides effortlessly, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. Released in very limited quantities, this is one of the most coveted creations of the season.
From Kyoto’s Fushimi district, Nichinichi Jozo presents its special limited edition Homase, brewed with the rare heritage rice Homase from the Kikuchi River basin in Kumamoto Prefecture — a variety revived through natural farming by Hananoka Shuzo, a brewery closely connected with Nichinichi.
Originally cultivated widely across Kyushu during the Edo period, Homase rice thrives through organic methods that express the vitality of the land. Sake brewed from this grain captures Nichinichi’s signature transparency and the rice’s gentle umami — a beautiful balance of tradition and innovation in a bottle.
