Kirakucho Shinshukassei Junmainigori

Kirakucho Shinshukassei Junmai Nigori from Kita Shuzo in Shiga is a fresh, unfiltered cloudy sake that retains rice solids from fermentation, giving it a milky appearance, natural sweetness, and a creamy, textured mouthfeel. The shinshukassei designation indicates a lively, freshly pressed character with active fermentation noted at bottling, which may give the sake a light natural effervescence from residual carbon dioxide. Shiga's clean Lake Biwa water and pure-rice junmai method provide the base for this seasonal fresh-release nigori, which captures the youthful energy of the new brewing season.
