Doboroku (craft sake) can be considered the genesis of sake. It is sake brewed without the process of PRESSING, the separation of the liquid (sake) from the fermentation mash. The cloudiness comes from from the sake rice grain that remains in the drink (but do not mistaken it as a nigiri aka cloudy sake which goes through the process of pressing.

Doburoku was a home brewed concoction at one point but was banned by the Japanese law during the Meiji period to regulate production and taxation of alcohol. Currently, the ban has been lifted but a Craft Sake license in Japan is required.

Note: It is illegal for Stellars under 18 years old to acquire liquor.

Price is in SGD.
Rice polishing ratio: 70%
Rice: Yamadanishiki 
ABV: 15%
VOL: 500ml
Tasting notes: Melon, honeysuckle, strawberry.

An unpasteurised, alive, dynamic &amp; powerful sake. Experience drinking a sake fresh out of the press. Allow it's fruity and floral aromatics, vibrant and juicy flavour to enchant your day. 

Recommended to be drank chilled, on it's own or with food.

It is a bold sake with higher level of acidity that will be able to stand up to the flavourful cuisine. Try pairing it with Suan La Fen (Sour &amp; spicy noodles), ma po tofu, pig trotter's vinegar, pasta with tomato, asam pedas, etc.

Junmai (pure rice):
It means the alcohol was produced by fermentation with no added distilled alcohol.

 Muroka (unfiltered):
Charcoal filtration gives sake their clear look but some brewers believes the process removes some flavours too. This sake did not go through this process, maintaining the natural colour and liveliness.

 Nama (unpasteurized):
Unpasteurized sake retains it’s fresh, dynamic and true flavours. Pasteurization stops fermentation by deactivating the microorganisms and killing bacteria. Without it, enzymes are in a reactive state and therefore there is a risk of composition changes. Therefore it should be kept chilled and drink it young.

Genshu (undiluted):
After fermentation, no water was added to dilute the sake. Fermentation was controlled to end at ABV 15% with the level of sweetness and acidity where we wanted.

 Shizuku (Drip-pressed):
Pressing, also referred to as filtering, which is the process of separating the liquid from the fermentation mash.
Shizuku which directly translate as “droplets”, is a laborious and low-yielding method where the mesh bags are filled with the fermention liquid and mash, hang and allowing gravity to extract the liquid (sake) via dripping. 

 Shiboritate (Freshly pressed):
Most sake are aged for approximately 6 months on average while this sake goes directly to the bottle after pressing.
