Jozen Junmai Ginjo Nigori, Niigata, Japan NV
Crafted by Shirataki Sake Brewery in the snowy heart of Niigata Prefecture, Jozen Nigori is a modern take on a traditional unfiltered sake style. Shirataki is known for producing clean, elegant sakes using pristine mountain spring water sourced from the melted snow of Mount Echigo. This Junmai Ginjo Nigori retains a soft cloudiness that gives texture and a gentle sweetness, while still maintaining the refined profile Niigata sake is famous for.
