Chiyo Shuzo head brewer Tetsuya Sakai constantly experiments with different strains of rice and brewing methods, making an extraordinarily wide range of small-batch sakes.
Primitive, quaffable and until recently illegal, doburoku is a one-step unfiltered version of sake that used to be made on the quiet in garages. Sakai-san had to get an extra license to brew this exquisite take on the old moonshine.
