Filtered v.s. Unfiltered Sake

Filtered sake is more transparent in appearance, having been poured through a fine strainer and paper filters to refine the sake’s opacity and taste.

Unfiltered sake is cloudier than its filtered counterpart, having been pressed but not double-filtered. This gives it a higher potency, darker color, and a fuller rice flavor.

Different Types of Sake

1. Junmai

2. Ginjo

3. Daigingo

4. Reserve

5. Nigori

Junmai

The purest form of sake made with only water, rice, koji and yeast and no additives like sugar, flavorings, or additional alcohol. It tends to be rich and full-bodied and is best served warm or at room temperature.

Ginjo

Ginjo sake is mandated to have a polishing standard of 40% removal and 60% remaining. Can have brewer’s alcohol added to enhance flavors and textures.

Can be bright and fruity or rice-forward and dry. They pair beautifully with light, balanced cuisine like sushi.

Daiginjo

Considered one of the most premium forms of sake, mandated to have a minimum of 50% rice polishing. This refinement results in sophisticated flavors and complexities that are beautiful on their own or paired with shellfish, sashimi, and other delicate flavors.

Nigori

Nigori sake is unfiltered, giving it a cloudy, milky consistency. It’s a subcategory of sake, meaning that you can have Junmai Nigori or Junmai Daiginjo Nigori for a high-quality drink with a creamy consistency. Nigori is typically sweet, but ranges from off-dry to dessert-style. It’s most often served cold, and its sugar content makes it a great pairing for spicy food.
