“Usually I always ask for filtered sake selection at liquor stores and restaurants, but Snow Maiden showed up in my tasting box... and am I ever glad it did! Snow maiden will turn any Nigori doubter into a believer! I'll definitely have to think about filtered or unfiltered twice the next time ordering sake. Definitely worth 22$ for the full size.”
“Actually was a great compliment to hot wings; as that was all I had on hand for dinner when I tried this one. Beautiful color, and can just be shaken up if it separates in the fridge.”
“Not my favorite nigori... it’s yummy and I’ll have it anytime! But it’s got a bit of the alcohol bite noticeable which I don’t appreciate as much in nigori, which I prefer sweet n smooth.”
We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy this Tozai "Snow Maiden" Nigori. If you would like to explore more others, we would recommend Kurosawa Nigori, Sayuri Nigori, and maybe Dassai 45 Nigori.
“Received this with the subscription box. Pretty good and worth trying, but definitely not my favorite nigori sake. I prefer a smooth flavor and I felt this had a little more of a sharp alcohol taste than I would have liked.”
Thank you for your feedback, Heather! If you would like a smooth, light&sweet Nigori, we would recommend Shichi Hon Yari "Nigori" sake https://www.tippsysake.com/collections/light-sweet/products/shichi-hon-yari-nigori
It is lighter taste and pair well with food. Please take a look if you are interested to find more!
“I am not a huge fan of this sake, it has a weird heavy cream taste but smells like honey due melon which I like. I just didn’t like the taste but that could be that I had another Nigori right before I poured that one. Still love Nigori and want to take a class on sake.”
