The new bath is called the Koshihikari Rice Bath and is available at Yunomori Onsen & Spa from 1 August till 19 September 2021. What’s so special about this new bath? Read on to find out!
What Is The Koshihikari Rice Bath?
Koshihikari Rice is a variety of short-grain rice that originates from Japan. This same type of rice is what we all know to be “sushi rice”, as it is the most popular rice to make sushi in Japan. The rice, besides containing many other nutrients, is also high in vitamin E, a natural antioxidant.
By having this rice blended into an onsen bath, its helps prevent the rapid aging of the skin caused by the sun’s harmful UV rays. Also, the Koshihikari Rice Bath also helps to nourish and protect your skin, giving you skin with more bounce and youthfulness. The rice bath is kept at temperatures between 38-39.5 degrees, providing the optimal temperature for your muscles and body to relax.
