Usu-Nigori means ‘lightly’ cloudy, where the lightest part of the sediment is left in from the soft pressing of the sacks filled with fresh sake [liquid and solids together]. Soma no Tengu should be gently shaken before pouring so that the sediment is distributed evenly. This Sake has a beautiful silvery color with a fresh aroma with hints of Jasmine rice and almond. A delicious sake with a creamy, sweet front palate, lightly tart side palate and a long dry finish. Delicate and refined, yet complex and assertive.
Best Served: Chilled.
Food Pairing: Shellfish of all types, spicy curry dishes.
