Usage Pairing: This nigorizake definitely needs to be chilled. It needs time to open up, so let it breathe for at least 15 minutes and don't rush the tasting. It needs to blossom like a flower. It pairs beautifully with spicy international cuisines like Indian dishes (chicken korma, for example), but also with a salted caramel dessert such as rice pudding with caramel sauce. Serving temperature: Chilled (10°C-15°C) or at room temperature (20°C)

Description
Nigori sake is an unfiltered sake, meaning it contains solid rice particles that give it a milky or cloudy appearance. This nigori sake is a winter sake that is completely unfiltered. It is produced at the beginning of the year, at the request of customers, from high-quality rice polished to 60%. It is a junmai-type sake, meaning it does not contain added alcohol. The yeast used is a white peach yeast, developed specifically for sake fermentation by the producer. Alcohol content: 14°
Flavor

Appearance: This sake is a typical nigori in the glass with a light opacity and a beautiful white color. It is milky and bright.

Nose: The initial nose presents aromas of roasted rice, cooked rice, and mushroom. It needs oxygen to open up. We then discover notes of almond and sea salt (iodine).

Palate: The palate also needs to breathe. The sake lees in the glass need to develop their aromatics. We then discover a dry, fruity sake with almonds, almond milk, cooked rice, and the water from the cooked rice. There is plenty of umami and the texture in the mouth is supple.

Finish: The tasting ends with notes of potpourri and faded rose.

Conservation

Store in a cool, dark place. Consume promptly after opening.
