Marukome “Plus Koji Koji Amazake”

Here’s an introduction to Marukome’s “Plus Koji Koji Amazake.”

“Plus Koji Koji Amazake” is an amazake made from rice koji.

This amazake is made by breaking down the starch in rice and rice koji to bring out their natural sweetness.


Amazake is made from 100% Japanese rice and is non-alcoholic.


This is an ad that was inserted in the newspaper, and it’s available in sets of 18 or more. This amazake is the one that’s often advertised in newspapers.


This amazake is a food product that meets infant food standards.
Foods Meeting Infant Formula Standards
“Foods subject to infant food standards” refers to products for which the standards for radioactive substances are classified under the “infant” category.This does not mean that the food is “suitable for babies” based on characteristics such as the nature or hardness of the ingredients; rather, it simply means that the standards for infants are applied solely with regard to radioactive substances.

My thoughts on drinking amazake

The amazake poured into the cup is milky white.

Amazake has a smooth texture because it doesn’t contain any rice grains.

As soon as I took a sip, I could taste the simple, gentle sweetness of rice koji in the amazake.
