Ultra-low-temperature aging “Junmai Daiginjo Sake” started online sales

2020.08.30

It features a taste that brings out the umami of rice by polishing Yamada Nishiki to 50%. By aging the trend that sake lovers are paying attention to, it has a rich flavor and deep taste. Until now, it was offered only at stores, but in response to Corona’s erosion, we started selling at the online shop in order to have a rich feeling of drinking.

“Japanese Cuisine Kanda” is one of Japan’s most famous restaurants that has been protecting the three stars for 13 consecutive years since “Michelin Guide Tokyo,” which introduced carefully selected restaurants in Tokyo, was published in 2007.

Mr. Hiroyuki Kanda, the owner chef, is a person who has studied for many years at a Japanese restaurant in Paris and a long-established restaurant in Tokyo. Known for serving the finest cuisine for a wide variety of guests, using carefully selected seasonal ingredients.

The trend of "aging", which liquor lovers are paying attention to

“Kandaseng Junmai Daiginjo Sake” is a pure rice Daiginjo Sake brewed by lavishly polishing up to 50% of Yamada Nishiki, the king of sake rice cultivated in Hyogo Prefecture. , I made full use of the deliciousness of rice. Aging has become a hot trend among Japanese sake fans in recent years because it calms down the sweetness of fresh sake and makes it sophisticated.

Although it was a liquor that I could only drink at stores, I decided to sell it online so that I could have more time to spend at home, as it was difficult to come to the store because of Corona. Not only the taste, but also the label that uses Tokushima’s handmade Japanese paper “Awa Japanese paper” and the packaging with the original indigo towel, which is the characteristic of pursuing the tradition and style of Japanese culture. The price is 15,000 yen (tax and shipping included).

Currently, a new original production project for “Japanese Cuisine Kanda” is underway. After completion, we are planning to sell it in the online shop as well, and we will deliver the finest taste to the home.
