Commonly referred to as "unfiltered" sake, nigori literally means "cloudy," and refers to sake that still contains rice solids that have not fermented. Although there are a wide range of nigorizakes available in the US today, most of them tend to be creamy and sweeter than clear sakes. The color of nigori can range from barely cloudy "usunigori" styles to rich, chewy sakes that almost require a spoon.
