About

Only the undiluted sake (genshu) that seeped out without added pressure from the sake bags holding the moromi (fermentation mash) was bottled. Made with the natural lactic acid bacteria of kimoto (traditional yeast-starter method), this junmai sake has the rich body that is unique to kimoto.
