Takachiho Muratabi “Chihomaro Brown Rice”

“Chihomaro Brown Rice” is an amazake made from brown rice koji.

This is a non-alcoholic, sugar-free brown rice amazake made through lactic acid fermentation.

“Chihomaro” is a drink made from amazake and lactic acid bacteria.

This amazake is a healthy treat for your body, made by adding lactic acid bacteria to already nutrient-rich amazake. What’s more, it’s made with brown rice, which is considered a complete source of nutrition.

The label is brown, reminiscent of the brown rice that is a specialty of Miyagi Prefecture.

When I took a sip, I found it to be an amazake with a smooth texture that made the tartness characteristic of brown rice easier to drink.
