TOZAI SNOW MAIDEN JUNMAI NIGORI SAKE

In Japan's Kinki region, where pristine waters flow from the foot of Mt. Ontake, Tozai crafts their Snow Maiden Junmai Nigori Sake—named after Hanako, the legendary koi fish that lived for 226 years in these same icy waters. This unfiltered nigori sake utilizes premium Gohyakumangoku and Ginohmi rice varieties, allowing natural rice particles to remain suspended in the final product. The result delivers a bright, creamy-textured experience with a harmonious balance of honeydew melon sweetness, subtle raw pumpkin earthiness, and crisp radish notes. Its full-bodied character and complex flavor profile make it an exceptional pairing for spicy cuisine, fresh seafood, and rich pork dishes.
