Going Organic w. Den Sake + Luna Koshihikari Rice
Sunday, April 30, 2023
In the midst of celebrating all things organic at Umami Mart this month (including organic sakes!) we are so excited to host the launch of Den 90, the newest sake release by Oakland's Den Sake Brewery, made with Luna Koshihikari Rice organically grown in Sacramento Valley! Den 90 has a seimaibuai of 90%, meaning only 10% has been shaved off, leaving all of those proteins and lipids that are usually discarded. Instead, Yoshi Sako of Den has decided to brew with as much of the rice as possible, to bring out the terroir of California. After four months of aging, Yoshi has created a sake that is as dynamic as our home state – we can't wait to share this special sake with you all!
Join us at 3:30pm sharp for a discussion between Yoshi and Wendy about the creation of Den 90 and the process of using Luna Koshihikari rice for the sake. Plus, Q+A!
Be one of the first to sip on Den 90 – only 50 cases have been made! Taste the sake and the freshly steamed rice it was made with! Don't miss this truly California-centric event.
