Muroka ("unfiltered saké")
Every and all sakés have to be properly and fully filtered (and though more or less crudely still properly filtered in the case of the Nigori sakés) to deserve the "Saké Designation".
Whenever mention is made to an “unfiltered sake”, as is the case of Muroka sakés, it means that it didn’t go through a usual second fine filtration process that requires the use of so-called “active charcoal” (carried out after pressing which is the official mandatory filtration).
