            Sake and Parmigiano Reggiano

            Sake offers a broad aromatic range—from fruity and floral to earthy and complex. This spectrum allows it to balance and enhance the intense, lingering flavors of Parmigiano Reggiano. Its gentle sweetness can temper the cheese’s saltiness, resulting in a harmonious tasting experience.
            maturation
            Parmigiano Reggiano over 35 months
            If you love intense flavors, Parmigiano Reggiano aged between 35 and 45 months is perfect for you. Expect strong aromatic intensity with pronounced spicy and smoky notes.
            Pair it with
            Aged Sake
            An umami-rich, complex approach. Aged sakes, like koshu, offer remarkable aromatic complexity. Their caramel and nutty notes match perfectly with the dried fruit and meat broth nuances of Parmigiano Reggiano aged over 36 months. This pairing creates a layered, enveloping sensory experience.
