Product details
Established in 1875, Take no Tsuyu in Yamagata Prefecture has been dedicated to producing high-quality beverages using traditional methods passed down through generations. The rice is polished to 55%, resulting in a clean and refined taste profile. As an undiluted product, it offers a higher concentration of flavors, showcasing the brewery's commitment to excellence.
The experience begins with delightful aromas of pineapple and red apples, setting the stage for a unique and well-balanced profile. On the palate, it delivers a mild flavor that is both clear and refreshing, with a pleasant umami derived from the rice. The finish is smooth and clean, leaving a lasting impression of the delicious creamy and earthy tones characteristic of Miyama Nishiki rice. This beverage pairs exceptionally well with a variety of dishes, including grilled or steamed seafood, oysters, scallops, caviar, chowder, risotto, and cheeses like blue cheese and camembert. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for enhancing a wide range of culinary experiences.
