This sake is a door opener into the world of sake, even for sake inexperienced guests. In addition, this was composed as a companion to French cuisine, so why not a sweet classic that has been reinterpreted. Chilled, at approx. 12 ° C, this Premium Junmai Gingo unfolds excellently and is a congenial partner for modern yuzu tarts. With its aromatic, expressive and opulent body, it can play wonderfully with the different textures of the interpretation. The umami and the fine acid structure of the sake are ideal partners for the sweet and sour yuzu tart. With this combination, there is a dance of the flavors in the mouth, which rarely looks for each other and makes you want more.
