Story

猪苗代 Inawashiro

"Inawashiro Tennotsubu" is a brand of rice produced using the original variety "Inawashiro Tennotsubu" which was completed by Fukushima Prefecture in 2011, and cultivated according to a unique manual developed by Inawashiro Town.

It was thought to be difficult to cultivate rice in areas with high altitudes like Inawashiro Town, but when local producers actually attempted cultivation, they achieved yields equal to or greater than conventional rice without losing to diseases or cold. Furthermore, the town's unique efforts have resulted in delicious rice.

Pride, adventure, and passion of Inawashiro are devoted to creating the ultimate rice. We are committed to this goal.
