Snow Maiden Junmai Nigori Sake
Typically stay away from nigori, but got this one in a subscription box, so I paired it with spicy Chinese chicken. Perfect smoothness and hint of sweetness. This will make a fan of anyone who says they don’t like unfiltered sake.

Feb 17th, 2017Yup, milky creamy style w/great floral lift w/lychee & sweet honeydew melon. At 15% - this was a bit hot and lacked stuffing... still very pleasant.

Mar 25th, 2021Thx Elise. Our first experience with this type of sake. It goes down easily with that curious powdery mouth feel.
