Description
An electrifying sake blend unlike anything in the codified world of Japanese sake.
Inspired by Essence 5 art of sake blending, François Chartier and Michael League (leader of Grammy-winning music collective Snarky Puppy) unite young junmai daiginjo and junmai ginjo with a touch of young ginjo and aged ginjo jukusei (aged) —
echoing the art of wine blending — to bring depth, length, and harmony.
A cultural and temporal hybrid where youth and maturity meet to create
a kaleidoscope of flavors — a signature, a sound, a soul.
Versatile food paring sake depending on temperature.
Ceviche-style dishes when served chilled at around 6 Celcius.
Oysters pair beautifully at roughly 10 Celcius.
Cold cuts such as Iberian jamón, copa or prosciutto work well when the sake is served at about 12 Celcius.
Aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Comté are ideal when enjoyed at a slightly warmer 16 Celcius.
