Kunizakari Rice Marugoto Amazake” using rice bran powder is now on sale from Nakano Shuzo Co. It is available at supermarkets nationwide, Nakano Shuzo’s online store, and Kunizakari Sake no Bunka-kan.
The “Rice Marugoto Amazake” is a fermented health drink that contains amazake, which is a fermented drink, and rice bran, a nutrient-rich ingredient that is obtained when brown rice is polished.
The rice bran powder used as an ingredient is an upcycled food product that makes it possible to use rice bran, which has high nutritional value but has been disposed of as inedible through technological innovation, and thus contributes to achieving the SDGs. The product is also environmentally friendly by reusing rice bran discarded in the amazake production process.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
