Unfiltered sake junmai nigori 720ml (14% Vol.)

349

30,30 € tax incl.

Description: The nigori sake is unfiltered, meaning that it contains solid particles of rice which 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, upon customer’s demand, from high-quality rice polished to 60%. This sake is a junmai. Therefore, it doesn’t contain any added alcohol. The yeast used is a white peach yeast, specially developed by the producer for sake fermentation. 

Alcohol by volume : 14%

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

Nose : The first nose presents aromas of roasted rice, cooked rice and mushroom. It needs oxygen to open. Then, notes of almond and sea salt (iodine) appear.

Mouth : The mouth also needs to breathe. The sake lees in the glass need to develop their aromatics. We then discover a dry and fruity sake with almond, almond milk, cooked rice and cooked rice water aromas. There is a lot of umami and the texture in the mouth is smooth.

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

Pairing : A nigorizaké to put in the fridge without a doubt. It needs to open up so do not rush into the tasting and let it breath for 15 minutes. It has to bloom like a flower. It will pair nicely with world cuisine with spices such as Indian cuisine (chicken korma for example) but also a salted butter caramel dessert like a rice pudding with a salted butter caramel sauce.

Serving temperature : Cold

Ingredients : Water, rice, koji.

Preservation : Keep in a cool place, away from sunlight. Consume soon after opening.

Origin : Japan 

Container : Glass bottle

Kamikokoro Brewery was founded by Chojuro Fuji more than one century ago, in 1913. The brewery was founded in Asakuchi, Okayama and is now led by the fifth generation of brewers. Kamikokoro brewery has been making sake with one goal in mind : brewing high quality sake that preserves the umami flavor of rice. To achieve this goal, the brewery developed a production process that includes a rice polishing machine that can polish 60kg of rice at once. The Kamikokoro staff are consumers before being brewers. Therefore, as consumers, they only produce healthy and flavorful products that they would want to enjoy with their family.
