So to speak autumn, it is new rice.
Because new rice is very delicious,it is said to be a representative of the autumn taste in Japan.
I overeat mayself and gain weight.
We like the best "Sasanishiki" brand all kinds of Japanese rice.
I think that most Japanese  people like "Koshihikari" brand.
Koshihikari has sweetness and stickiness taste.
Sasanishiki has plain taste but its after taste is very well.
However Japanese people like Koshihikari rather than Sasanisishiki.
So Sasanisiki is not cultivated very much in any place other than Miyagi where it was born.
In addition the rice cultivation farmhouse of Miyagi was damaged by this earthquake.
Sasanishiki will disappear more and more.
I am sad.
