About

Pesticide-free rice, grown under contract with dedicated local farmers, is polished to a 45% rice polishing ratio, using only the white core of each grain. All brewing is carried out by hand. Shizuku-zake has a slight effervescence. Its dry, clean taste and refreshing character are at their best when it is served in a sherbet-like, semi-frozen state.

Aged in storage for seven years or more.
