Do you like sake? This experience allows you to compare 8 carefully selected types of sake that can only be tasted in Japan. First, let's learn a little about sake. Let's start by trying sake with low alcohol content. The average alcohol content of sake is 15-16%. Some sake is lower, while others are higher. Another feature of sake is that it is easy to pair with food, whether it is sweet or dry, or at a certain temperature. Enjoy the pairing with snacks. The last glass is sweet sake, which can be enjoyed as a dessert.・Gakki Masamune Junmai Sake Junjo (Fukushima Prefecture) Junmai sake with an excellent balance of juicy sweetness and acidity ・Tamanohikari Junmai Daiginjo (Kyoto Prefecture) A strong flavor, yet smooth on the throat ・Sharaku Junmai Daiginjo (Fukushima Prefecture) A fruity aroma in the mouth ・Dainanai Junmai Kimoto Dashiwari (Fukushima Prefecture) A mellow, well-balanced sake with a pleasant umami and acidity on the aftertaste ・Kudoki Jouzu Junmai Ginjo (Yamagata Prefecture) A gorgeous, fruity aroma ・Oze no Yukidoke Junmai Daiginjo Mizore Sake (Oze no Yukidoke) ... Fresh, fruity, and juicy in taste ・Seiai (Blue Ao) ... A mysterious indigo color created by adding blue natural herbs to Junmai Ginjo sake ・Amazake (Sweet sake) ... Koji amazake, so nutritious that it is called a "drinkable IV drip," was a summer drink that was popular with people of all ages and genders during the Edo period.

Food that combines the spirit of hospitality and history of Date Masamune with ``terroage,'' a combination of ``terroir,'' which refers to the climate, natural features, and human activities of a region, and ``marriage,'' which refers to the matching of food and alcohol. It's an experience. Date Masamune was particular about entertaining his guests, and his style was to offer heartfelt hospitality. ``In order to entertain people, rather than preparing a large number of dishes, please be considerate and cook the food in front of them, or bring your own food and serve it in a dignified way.'' ``Feast people.'' It's good to have one for everything. (Both from the Kimura Uemon Memorandum) Dishes that use carefully selected ingredients produced in Miyagi Prefecture, including the Akiu area, and the Akiu cuisine cultivated by the climate of Akiu. Marriage with wine from Winery. The event will be held at Akiusha, a charming cafe-restaurant that was opened in a renovated 160-year-old private house.

We have prepared a special menu to recreate the New Year's dishes. Each group enjoyed a course meal and Akiu wine as their main ingredients. Stay tuned to see what kind of theme and what kind of Miyagi Prefecture ingredients will be featured next!
