Nigori Silky Mild emits the fruity aromas and flavors of ripe banana, vanilla, melon, strawberry, and creamy sweet rice custard. Its milky-white appearance previews the characteristically full, smooth palate of the Nigori sake type.

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.

Pairing Suggestions

Nigori Silky Mild is great on its own or as a softly sweet after-dinner drink: Its bold, sweet, fruity flavors balance spicy and salty foods and can serve as a counterpoint to grilled cuisine. Good choices include Unagi, grilled chicken and pork (for example, sweet and tangy BBQ sauce), as well as hot Thai, Chinese, or Indian dishes. At breakfast it can also accompany unsweetened, savory waffles.

Wine Comparisons

Pinot Gris from Oregon, an approachable, food-friendly white wine with soft mouthfeel, generous body, and a hint of sweetness
