What to eat with itFood Pairings

Sushi寿司

CLASSIC

Born's soft, round daiginjo (mellow 0.55, mild 0.51) is gentler and less dry than a tanrei sake; its silky body cushions richer nigiri like eel and seared toro rather than cutting against them.

Tempura天ぷら

CLASSIC

Born's mellow, full body (mellow 0.55, heavy 0.37) stands up to the oil of tempura, its softness coating the palate while the moderate dryness keeps each piece from feeling heavy.
