This is the unpasteurised and undiluted (nama genshu) version of Katori 80. Sake as it was made a few centuries ago. True ‘liquid rice’ in taste, colour and aroma. All ingredients and elements are premodern: organic rice, natural yeast, slow-brew kimoto, unfiltered. The ‘80’ in the name is the polishing percentage and indicates that the rice was also polished in a pre-modern way, merely 20%.
All this results in a very strong rice bran taste and lactobacillus acidity.
This unpasteurised and undiluted version is extremely limited (Yoigokochi only!) and needs to be prereserved.
