About

This product is pasteurized (hiire) and then aged for an extended period in the bottle to develop depth of flavor. To preserve its character, no sediment removal or carbon filtration is performed before shipment. As a result, sediment (ori) forms at the bottom of the bottle. This sediment consists of sake-derived components that precipitated during aging, and it does not affect the quality of the product.
