Organic brown rice koji

Excellent product, I am using it every day to make koji water.
This product has very little koji smell I don’t like. Easy to consume.

Amazake koji for brown rice

Made a gallon of Amazake with organic brown rice koji from Amazake Co. and it was sweet and energizing. The husks aren’t a great mouth feel in a drink, but the fiber is necessary in my diet. Will be better mixed with another pulpy or fibrous food. Trying the organic white rice koji next for better mouth feel as a drink.
I appreciate the years of experience, knowledge and care that have made Amazake Co. koji available for my gastronomic exploration.
