During this season when spring comes, sake also has a special "spring-only" flavor.
A soft aftertaste and faint sweetness of the flower.
Spring alcohol actually goes well with not only Japanese food but also foreign cuisines.
This time, we will introduce a marriage between three types of sake you can enjoy in the spring and dishes from around the world.
In addition, we also offer sake ware made from traditional crafts that enhance the taste of alcohol.
