Murai Family Nigori Genshu (Imported) |
TASTING NOTES Smooth and creamy with confectionery aromas, a sweet and milky entry with rich rice flavors, hints of cream, pineapple, coconut and vanilla. This is a bold and hearty saké that is sure to reward the exploring palate.
PAIRING NOTES RICE MILLING SERVING TEMPERATURE SAKÉ METER VALUE ALCOHOL CONTENT Take a big step back in time, before modernization brought the concept of filtration to saké brewers. Step back to a simple time when saké was fresh, unfiltered and undiluted. Nigori means "Cloudy," or "Unfiltered" which comes from the rice sediment that remains in the saké after it passes through a very coarse mesh and often after some of the fermenting mash is added back. Thicker and unrefined, unlike most saké, Nigori is to saké as Hefeweizen is to beer — thick and creamy. |
