Hattan rice dates back to the 1800s when the Hattanso rice variety was mixed by private growers. Following in the early 1900s, the Hiroshima prefecture started creating varieties of Hattan rice that would be more resistant to disease, produce high yields, and also craft a more excellent shinpaku. Different varieties of the Hattan rice were bred through the decades, and the results included stronger varieties that were more resistant to disease. The breeding also introduced varieties more ideal for sake brewing because of their ability to absorb water. Hiroshima Hattan features a signature delicate taste that is deliciously fragrant.
