Let this nigori reveal itself

Just as flowers open and close according to the time of day and year, this nigori changes its impression with temperature. Drink it chilled for a more vibrant experience with hints of citrus. Try it warm to observe notes of coconut, sweet potato and apple. This 100% American-made cloudy sake excels when paired with tacos, buffalo wings, pork roast, and caprese. It is Kosher certified, gluten free and vegan.

Origami Sake

This Arkansas brewery uses 100% American resources, from the mineral water of the Ouachita Mountains to the locally grown sake rice of Isbell Farms. However, their expertise in sake can be traced to Japan, where Vice President Ben Bell completed a two-year brewing residency with Nanbu Bijin before teaming up with Matt Bell — no relation — at Origami Sake. Matt, the brewery’s president and CEO, fell in love with sake while working as a wine specialist. Origami Sake is not just a brewery, but also a research center for sake. They are determined to lead the rediscovery of sake in America.
