Item: 1966-EA
Description
Food Pairings: White fish dishes (grilled, steamed, carpaccio, etc.), Shellfish (raw, steamed), Olive oil-based dishes, Rare cheese cake etc.
Tasting Notes: A sake for wine lovers and food pairing. A blend of six sake with different flavors are fine-tuned while maintaining a layered and complex taste. Anise, fresh basil, and a caramel-like aroma is accented by tropical fruit. On the palate, it has a light sweetness and smoothness, but the multi-layered acidity of the blend makes the aftertaste even lighter. Blend 001 is light and fruity like a Sauvignon Blanc when chilled. At room temperature it becomes like Chardonnay, where lactic tones and umami richness come out to play. This difference in experience due to the serving temperatures allow for even greater food pairings.
