This is sake kasu (lees) from Dewatsuru Brewery in Daisen City, Akita Prefecture. It's nerikasu (kneaded lees), so it's very soft and easy to dissolve. It comes in a 1kg package, so you can use it generously in various dishes like pickles and soups. Nerikasu, which is made by aging itakasu (pressed lees), is soft like miso, making it easy to use in cooking and pickling. It also has a mellower flavor and richer body than itakasu. Shipped via Yu-Packet Post. Contents: 1kg (1kg x 1 bag) Best Before: November 2026 Type of Kasu: Nerikasu (Kneaded Lees) ⚫Important Notes: The color will darken as it ages due to the action of yeast. The sake kasu delivered may be darker in color than the photos depending on the degree of aging, but there is absolutely no problem with the quality.
