Product details
Daishichi Yukishibori Nigori is a masterful expression of lightly clouded sake, introduced in 1994 during a time when sparkling and sweet nigori sake were gaining popularity. Its name, “Yukishibori,” meaning "Pressed in the Snow," reflects the serene imagery of a sake brewery amidst falling snow in Northeastern Japan. This elegant name was gifted by the renowned zymologist Dr. Takeo Koizumi, emphasizing the sake’s unique origins and refinement. Yukishibori Nigori stands apart with its light fizz, achieved through a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Unlike other sparkling sakes, it is pasteurized after fermentation, ensuring a stable and consistent quality with every pour.
Delicate yet vibrant, Yukishibori Nigori is perfect as an aperitif, offering a gentle aroma and fine bubbles that awaken the palate. Its light fizz and refreshing taste pair beautifully with bittersweet spring vegetables, tempura, or Western dishes like sautéed foods and spicy cuisine. The sake is adorned with a striking blue metallic acanthus leaf label, symbolizing elegance and modernity. Celebrated worldwide, Daishichi Yukishibori Nigori has introduced countless sake enthusiasts to the delicate balance of tradition and innovation, making it a versatile and sophisticated choice for any occasion.
