A beverage containing black vinegar and dietary fiber.
In the mild climate of Fukuyama-cho, Kagoshima Prefecture, (where winters are warm, summers cool and the average temperature year-round is 17-18??, optimal for fermentation), brown rice Black Vinegar Drink is made solery from steamed brown rice, yellow yeast and subterranean water (cleanly filtered through Sakurajima's volcanic ash), where it naturally ferments for six months inside ceramic pots. Its deliberate making from fermentation broth with an additional six months' aging increase the good flavor and gives it depth. It contains 5% organic acid (regular rice vinegar has 4.2%), and the addition of plum juice or apple juice, which contain water-soluble dietary fiber and organic acid, make it a soft drink that is easy to imbibe. It may be drunk by those who are concerned about blood pressure or cholesterol, those who are slightly tired, or simply by those seeking daily health and beauty maintenance.
