Gekkeikan Nigori 300ml - Cloudy Sake

Gekkeikan Nigori 300ml - Cloudy Sake

Origin: Fushimi, Kyoto, Japan. Gekkeikan was founded in Fushimi in 1637 and is one of the oldest sake breweries in the world.

Nigori is a coarsely filtered style of sake, left deliberately cloudy by allowing fine rice sediment to remain in the bottle. Gekkeikan Nigori is a Specialty Junmai shu brewed from rice polished to 78%.

Nose: Earthy and sweet, gently acidic and rice derived, with creamy, yoghurt like aromas.

Palate: Sweet overripe banana, milk and cantaloupe, with a thick, creamy mouthfeel.

Finish: Slightly grainy, with a bold acidity that keeps it crisp and refreshing.

How to serve: Shake gently and serve chilled. Pairs well with fresh fruit, light desserts, rich meat dishes and spicy food.
