Shirakawago's products

Named after the Doburoku Festival held in Shirakawago, this junmai nigorizake extravagantly uses twice the normal amount of rice used to make normal sake. The process of making Doburoku sake leaves the mash in the sake, making it extremely dense and cloudy. This density and the natural deliciousness of the rice creates a refined ambrosia with a stable taste that can be enjoyed year-round. It is best served chilled to 10 degrees, or on the rocks at the height of summer.

After being sealed in bottles, naturally released carbonation from a second fermentation is trapped inside. Through this second fermentation, a special carbonation and sweetness is created.
