A cloudy nigori sake from Akita — soft, lightly sweet and silky, an approachable Japanese classic.

"Boken Nigori" is a nigori (unfiltered, cloudy) sake from Akita, one of Japan's most respected sake-brewing prefectures. Nigori is left roughly filtered so fine rice particles remain, giving a soft, creamy texture and a gentle, off-dry sweetness. Served well chilled, it's an approachable, delicious introduction to premium sake.
