Have you heard of drip sake, or Shizuku? It is when the sake with its sake lees are placed in bags and suspended. This process of filtration allows gravity to take its course so that the sake drips out of the bag, one drop at a time, and collected into 18-liter jars. There is no manual pressure and can take days before the process is done. It requires a lot of patience and skill to prevent oxidation and manual labor.

Additional Information

About the Brewery: Kokuryu Shuzo

Kokuryu was founded in 1804 in the land of the nine-headed dragon. Fukui is abundant with pure water that flows from the snowmelt of the Hakusan mountains through the rocky layers of the Kuzuryu river contributing to the high quality ginjo production and texture of their products. In addition to using only the highest quality rice, the brewery continues to innovate through research and state-of-the-art facilities to produce one of the best cult sake products in Japan.
