“Toji no Amazake” brewed in Sauna brewery
fumimoto brewery 文本酒造株式会社
(文本酒造株式会社, HQ:Shimanto-machi, Takaoka-gun, Kochi Prefecture) is launching 2 products, ‘Toji-no Amazake’ and ‘Zenrakuji(-Temple)’ simultaneously. Toji-no-amazake is amazake with rice koji made from local branded rice of Niida Rice.
Zenrakuji-Temple is 30th soul spot in the Shikoku Region.
Made using polished rice just as the Sake production, the drinks have rather clear, naturally sweet, refreshing flavours. There is no alcohol containt, so it can be consumed by those who do not take alcohol. The amazake is produced in a special sauna-like room placed in the Sake brewery. Products can also be ordered under original designs through our website https://fumimoto.jp/ .
Unique method of production
To make amazake, the temperature needs to be kept stable for the entire night.
The specialized equipment to stabilize the temperature is expensive and it small breweries cannot always afford it. Therefore, alternatively, the brewery performs the amazake production in a amazake-exclusive sauna situated within the Sake brewery.
