I used it to make and try amazake for the first time. It was enjoyable and didn't last long. I'm looking forward to my next project with shio koji.

Best malted rice!

I’ve been using this dried malted rice for making own Amazake for 4 years now. Amazake is a Japanese super food which is called a drinkable IV shot. I tried many different kinds of rice koji but this one is the best. Very smooth, sweet and great flavour of Koji.
I love it!
