This was the beginning of Kyokai yeast. In 1921 (Taisho 10), Kamotsuru monopolized the top three places out of 4,222 entries at the National Alcoholic Beverage Competition. The excellence of Kamotsuru yeast was recognized, and it was distributed to breweries throughout the country as the fifth \"Kyokai yeast.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cat-img\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/shop.kamotsuru.jp\/kamotsuru\/img\/category\/hiroshimanishiki\/hiroshima_cat-3.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"cat-title\"\u003eResurrection of the phantom sake rice \"Hiroshima Nishiki\"\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cat-text\"\u003e\"Hiroshima Nishiki,\" revived from seed rice, is a sake-brewing rice variety that was a recommended variety in Hiroshima Prefecture in the early Showa period. It was characterized by small grains and a rich flavor when made into sake, but it stopped being cultivated due to reasons such as being tall and easily falling over. Kamotsuru Sake Brewery, seeking that rich flavor, revived \"Hiroshima Nishiki\" with the cooperation of commissioned farmers. This sake is a Junmai sake brewed from Hiroshima Nishiki, polished entirely in-house, and handcrafted in the dead of winter by Toji (master brewer) Shigeru Mukuda at Brewery No. 2, which has been operating since 1897.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cat-img\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/shop.kamotsuru.jp\/kamotsuru\/img\/category\/hiroshimanishiki\/hiroshima_cat-2.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cat-img\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/shop.kamotsuru.jp\/kamotsuru\/img\/category\/hiyaoroshi_yontouji\/hiyaorosi_yontouji_cat-6.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"cat-title\"\u003eSoft, mellow sweetness and umami.
