“Hansho” Silver, as opposed to the counterpart Blue, uses the heirloom Omachi sake rice to give the grit, depth and soul inspired by the rock band, along with a clean finish that dissipates into the night. Pairs well with foods with some depth such as reduced sauces and aged cheese. They recommend serving it in a wine glass when chilled, and a ceramic ochoko and tokkuri when warmed.
Foo Fighters×TATENOKAWA is brewed in Yamagata Prefecture in the Tohoku region.
Tatenokawa Brewing Company
Yamagata Prefecture
Tatenokawa represents lightness and transparency of a clean river. The 180 years of history never interfere with their continuous challenge to achieve the highest quality. It was the first sake brewery in Yamagata that decided to brew exclusively “Junmai Daiginjo” class sake and they continue to do so while providing their high quality sake at affordable prices. Nearly all the rice they use for production is locally grown “Miyamanishiki” and “Dewasansan.” In 2014, ANA International picked this sake for their First Class and Business Class sake.
