You’ll be thick as thieves

This nigori is so saturated with rice lees, it’s as close to “doburoku” (unfiltered sake) as you can get! For such a weighty sake it’s exceptionally silky, and its gentle sweetness finishes rather dry. Horai “Hida no Dobu” won a gold medal at the National Warm Sake Contest. It’s a certified vegan sake, but if you’re a meat-eater, we recommend pairing it with seared beef.
