Kameno-o is an heirloom table rice, selected by a farmer in the 1890s and later woven into the ancestry of both Koshihikari and Sasanishiki, and it brews into sake with more grip and savor than the modern brewing rices. Uehara Shuzo, in Takashima on the northwest shore of Lake Biwa in Shiga, is the right brewery for it: seventh generation, brewing since 1862, and stubbornly old-fashioned. They polish their rice in-house, build the starter by the yamahai method - waiting for ambient yeast and lactobacilli to show up rather than pitching cultured strains - ferment in wooden vats, and press on a tenbin, a wooden beam-and-weight press that takes three days where a modern machine takes half of one. The rice here is milled to 55 percent, and the sake comes out full and savory rather than delicate. Drink it with food; it takes gentle warming as happily as a chill.
