Sayuri Nigori Sake 720ml
About this bottle
Sayuri Nigori is an unfiltered Junmai sake from Hakutsuru, a brewery founded in 1743 in the Nada district of Kobe, one of Japan's oldest and best-known sake houses. It's brewed from rice milled to a 70% polish ratio and left coarsely filtered rather than clarified, which is what gives nigori its signature cloudy appearance and thicker, creamier texture. The flavor leans sweet, with notes of white grape and a hint of cherry blossom running through a soft, floral profile that's easy to drink even for people new to sake. At 12.5% ABV, it's gentle enough to serve alongside food or on its own. The 720ml bottle is a good size for sharing over a meal.
How to drink Sayuri Nigori
Give the bottle a gentle shake or swirl before pouring, since the rice sediment that gives nigori its cloudy look settles at the bottom. Serve it chilled alongside sushi, spicy food, or dessert — its sweetness holds up well against heat and sugar.
