Japanese sake is made from water, rice, and koji. There are many specific rice varieties cultivated for brewing sake, all of which are lumped together as sakamai (酒米). Some are more prominent than others and one in particular has gotten itself a bit of a cult following. You may refer to it as the OG or grandfather of sakamai and of course, we are referring to Omachi (雄町)!

One of the oldest rice varieties dating back to 1859, Omachi was first grown in the town of Omachi in Okayama Prefecture. It is praised for adding rich and complex flavors to sake but is notoriously difficult to grow. Cultivation dwindled as farmers turned to easier to grow varieties until it was almost lost. However, it was brought back from the brink of extinction by dedicated and passionate brewers and the rest is history.

It is impossible to think about Japan’s sake landscape without sake made from Omachi rice and “Omachists” (as fans endearingly call themselves) celebrate their favorite sake online with dedicated hashtags, while farmers and brewers from Okayama organize an amazing event – the Omachi Summit every year to help people fall in love with it.

So join Cindy Bissig and Arline Lyons as they welcome Giulia Maglio, a sake educator and kurabito to dive into the world of Omachi and share their knowledge and experience. Learn more about the basic facts and history of Omachi rice, reasons why it might be so popular, and how to promote it, as well as get a unique perspective as Giulia shares a bit of what it is like working with Omachi in the Koji room…

As always, if you have questions or comments please do share them with us at questions@sakeonair.com or head over to our Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook we would love to hear from you!

We’ll be back very soon with plenty more Sake On Air.
Until then, kampai!
