Characteristically sweet with a creamy medium-body. Hints of honey and tropical fruit, with a long finish.

Gekkeikan Nigori is a rough-filtered Sake. By definition Nigori means “cloudy” and this style of sake is thicker and creamier in texture, with a milk like appearance. The ‘cloudiness’ comes from the rice sediment which remains in the sake after it has been passed through a special coarse-mesh filter. The tradition of rough-filtering sakes
has been used in Japan for many centuries.

Sake is Japan’s most well-known alcohol. It is brewed using special sake rice, koji (an edible rice mould that serves as the fermenting agent), and sometimes a little brewer's alcohol. A sake's characteristics, including how sweet or dry it is, how light or full bodied it is, and what flavours it evokes, depend on the type of rice and other ingredients used, how much the rice is polished/milled, and what brewing methods have been employed.

Delicious with fresh fruit salad, lightly sweetened dessert, rich flavoured meat dishes and spicy food. Served chilled or in a variety of unique cocktails. Shake well before serving.
