Until the first half of 1990, it was a well-known variety known as Koshihikari of West-Japan and Sasanishiki of East-Japan and despite its strong popularity and a lot of demand, it was vulnerable to cold damage and difficult to grow .
Because of this, it is a rare variety with low production.
The taste is “light and easy” and “smelling and moderately sweet”, which is of course delicious when eaten as it is, but it is “rice that goes well with sushi” that is used in many high-end sushi restaurants in Japan.
