ゆきこ
Tsukikoshi is a method of filtering sake by eliminating the two elements of pressure and oxidation. It is a filtration technique that was actually practiced during the Edo period. It is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process that can only be done in small quantities. It is not practiced today because it is time-consuming and the amount of filtration is very small. The fresh gaseous sensation and mellow sweetness like that of freshly picked peaches. This is how the website describes it. Personally, I don't know what freshly picked peaches are. I didn't feel the gassy sensation as much as I thought I would. The mouthfeel is fresh and refreshing, but the aftertaste is very much like sake. It felt a little heavy to me, but I guess people who like it will like it.
