This is completely "Yamada Nishiki" daiginjo's genshu (undiluted sake). Kurabito (brewers) use traditional techniques and put their whole souls into making this sake. This exquisite sake is made by a traditional pressing method, in which shizukuzake (sake drops) that trickle out from sakabukuro (sake bags that are used to hang sake mash) is collected into a dobin (18 liter bottle), then matured at a low temperature.
