Sake Pairing Menu
Promotional period: 7th February – 28th February
Dish: Lamb Rib, Buttermilk & Chilli snack
Sake: Shichida Junmai Daigingo from Tenzan Shuzo brewery in Saga
Pairing: A beautiful, bold and tropical Junmai Daiginjo - still so elegant - pairs amazingly with with the ribs which rubbed with a chilli glaze which the Schichida Junmai Daigingo mirrors perfectly with its exotic, sweet fruit notes, also lifting up the chilli spice.
Dish: Smoked Eel on Toast
Sake: Tsuchida Shuzo 'Te To Te', Junmai
Pairing: Te To Te – literally 'sky and hand' – is made using the classical Kimoto method, where brewers manually mash steamed rice, koji and water to encourage the development of natural lactic acid. The result is wildly savoury, tasting a bit like Monster Munch dipped in Marmite. As a supremely low intervention Sake it brings a beguiling smoky, salty, almost pickled quality to food – with echoes of yeast extract. Paired with smoked eel on toast, the Kimoto method’s natural acidity adds brightness, while the Sake’s smoky depth mirrors and amplifies the eel’s own smoky notes.
Dish: Brown Bread Ice Cream & Marmalade Ripple
Sake: Tsuchida 99
Pairing: This is a beautiful pairing given a precise match of sweetness in both the sake and desert. The umami arising from the Tsushima 99 adds a touch of salinity to the sweetness of the marmalade ripple.
