Morihiro

One of chef Mori’s favorite sake to pair with his menu. This sake is a perfect example of Niigata-style (clean and dry) sake with a deep balanced flavor. Yamada Nishiki rice is polished all the way down to 35% bringing out a great ginjo flavor profile of flowers and light fruits while retaining a deep umami backbone. The name “Milky Way” refers to the complexity of this sake comparing its complexity to all the stars in the sky. This sake makes it a great pairing with the chef’s menu as the flavors will evolve and change each course.
