Tonight, we will be serving 7 kinds of local sake at the pinnacle of Niigata gastronomy, Brothers Sushi. First up was a Kirinzan sake brewed with local rice Takananishiki💛.
For a weekend lunch, we chose a sake pairing at a three-star French restaurant. A wine sommelier certified as a sake taster selected six different varieties, starting with a Sanchi no Hozu Masuyo Nozomi from Kumamoto 💚.
Tonight, we have four sake selections chosen by the owner of a sushi restaurant that has a one-and-a-half year waiting list for reservations. We started with a junmai sake from Suzukagawa, which is only available in Mie Prefecture🧡.
