Omachi 雄町

Omachi is the oldest variety of rice suitable for sake brewing, and is the ancestor of Yamadanishiki and Gohyakumangoku. It is a late-harvesting variety, and about 95% of its production comes from Okayama, where it was discovered because tall rice plants tend to fall over and are difficult to cultivate. The quality of the sake is suited for aging, and it secretly attracts fans.
