I love the small bottles; I just never buy them because my wallet always tells me it’s not a good enough deal. Down, wallet, down! I will have to try one soon.

check either in Whole Foods Durham, or at Sam’s Quick stop–this is where i usually find it. I’m sure total wine or some place of the like will have it. Ozeki (sp?) and Tanaka?(sp for sure) are the more common ones. Chill, shake well…

I’ve just found that those nigori’s that come in the larger americanized wine-sized bottles are just not as clean tasting, and the flavored ones just seem silly to me, given that it’s lightly sweet and creamy in and of itself…

and let me add…I did not mean to come off so snooty!…lol

Hmm, it’s always possible that my expectations were lowered because the last nigori I tried (Snow Maiden) was really gross for me. Where do you find the ones in the little green bottles? I’d love to try them.

Pearl is a terrible Nigori…try the stuff in the smaller green bottles…clean, lightly sweet, slightly creamy,not affected by other flavors…well chilled
