Cheese & Sake Pairing Onnomi #7

Cheese & Sake Pairing Onnomi #7
- Description
- Selections
For the 7th IRA Sake On-nomi, we will be doing a cheese and sake pairing session! We will be working with the Cheese Ark to bring you 5 rare cheeses with 5 different sakes for pairing.
People seldom think that Sake is a natural pairing for Cheese. This is because many people only think of Sake pairings with Japanese food, and cheese does not feature heavily in tradition Japanese cuisine.
Yet, Sake and cheese have a lot in common! Lactic acid (Milk acid) features heavily in both products, and both also are very high in umami. In theory, they should synergise very well together and increase complexity!
This cheese and sake selection will include 5 x 80ml of sample sakes & 5 x 15g of cheese samples in a tasting flight The Full Bottle Set will be available with 60g of each cheese. This will be fulfilled and delivered on the late afternoon of Wednesday, 8 July 2020.
The event will start at 8pm. The room will launch at 7:45pm for networking. To join, please purchase our Tasting Set, or Full Bottle Set
We will now private message participants the Zoom Room and Password after you order your tasting set. Meeting details will also be included in the tasting sets together with the Sake Details and Tasting notes.
The individual bottles will be available at a discounted rate till one week after the date of tasting.
