Product details
Tamano Hikari 94 Kushi Junmai Ginjo is a sake crafted with a specific purpose in mind—pairing perfectly with yakitori. Its name, "94" (pronounced ku-shi), refers to skewers, reflecting its intended culinary match. The sake features a rich umami flavor, accented by a pleasant acidity and a hint of bitterness that complements the sweet and savory notes of grilled skewered meats. On the nose, you'll find enticing aromas of toasted grain and honey, leading to a chewy, rustic palate that makes this sake particularly enjoyable when gently warmed.
Ideal for yakitori enthusiasts, this sake enhances the charred, caramelized flavors of skewered chicken thighs, especially when coated with tare sauce. Whether enjoying it with classic yakitori or smoky burnt ends, the bold and complex flavor profile of 94 Kushi Junmai Ginjo will elevate your dining experience. Keep an eye out for the unique label design—featuring a char mark in the shape of the Japanese archipelago!
