Takara Nigori Review

Sho Chiku Bai Takara Nigori

Type: Junmai Nigori/ Unfiltered

History/Overview:Nigori is the way sake first appeared when it was brewed for the Imperial Court in Kyoto as well as for most of its 2,000-year history. It is lightly-filtered and the sweetest of all our types of sake. It is especially delicious with very spicy foods. The bottle should be shaken each time before pouring due to the high rice content that settles in the bottom of the bottle.

Dry/Sweet: -20 (very sweet)

Aroma: Mild
Best Served: Chilled
Pairing food: Rich and well seasoned dishes. Great as a dessert
