I have only experimented with Eiko Fuji "10,000 Ways" and the salty Roquefort thus far, and it worked. Although I think I might opt for a thicker and richer (maybe sweeter) Nigori when pairing with Roquefort.

... and when you do, share with us what you have discovered - it will be very interesting how our palates find specific pairings. Kanpai! :-)

I love pairing Sake with cheese and other foods that people do not think about pairing together. Cheese has umami (deep, rich flavors) and so does sake so they really do pair well. I enjoy pairing sharp cheese with dry sakes such as Born "Gold Muroka" and Wakatake "Onikoroshi". I have also paired rich Yamahai sake such as Cowboy Yamahai with aged goudas and blue cheese. Enjoy your pairings!
