Dear connoisseur

With summerlike temperatures we open up the game season, masterly accompanied with sake that will re-open your sins...

A venison stew with a fruity cranberry sauce, an escalope of venison with caramelized pears or a wild boar’s chop with autumnal side dishes such as red cabbage with quinces or sweet chestnuts.

To a hearty game dish, shizuku recommends...
... the delicate and vibrant Sawaya Matsumoto Junmai Daiginjo with a hint of sparkling
... the complex, gentle, aromatic and sirupy-fruity Daihoju
... or the complex Daiginjo Hiyashibori with a hint of moss and conifers combined with a slightly bitter taste of cocoa

shizuku is pleased to keep introducing to you appealing ideas for the joy of sake and to inspiring you with suggestions around umeshu and shochu.

Various recipes and suggestions for an enjoyable autumn are to be found here.
