Sake vessels

A bowl-shaped sake cup is recommended to bring out the sake's umami and sweetness. Earthenware and porcelain cups match well, too.

Food pairing

This sake has a powerful aroma and an umami-rich flavor. It pairs perfectly with bold-flavored dishes: grilled eel with tare sauce, simmered pork belly, beef stew, and roast foie gras.
