What to eat with itFood Pairings
Cheese(チーズ)
CONTEMPORARYTamagawa is among the richest, heaviest sake here (heavy 0.62, mellow 0.62, low dry 0.22); its dense, almost sherry-like body is a famous match for blue cheese and aged hard cheeses.
Wagyu beef(和牛)
CONTEMPORARYTamagawa's enormous body and low dryness (heavy 0.62, dry 0.22) give it the weight to wrap around the fat of grilled wagyu, its rich umami matching the marbled beef pound for pound.
Bbq(バーベキュー)
CONTEMPORARYTamagawa's massive, low-dry body (heavy 0.62, dry 0.22) has the richness to stand up to smoky, fatty BBQ pork and ribs where a lighter sake would be swamped.
