Okayama

岡山

Okayama Prefecture in western Japan is blessed with a mild, sunny climate — the Land of Sunshine — and excellent rice-growing conditions. The prefecture cultivates outstanding Omachi sake rice, the ancestor of many modern varieties, prized for rich, full-bodied expressions. Tsuji Honten (Gozenshu) champions Omachi in its traditional bodaimoto and modern ginjo sakes alike.
