Foods of Asia Feb 2009 (241)

• Highlighted in this gallery is the special dinner at Maeda Sushi with pairing of sakes from Niigata Prefecture, Honshu Island. Niigata prefecture is famous for its fine rice and fresh water. About 2 hours by Shinkansen (Bullet Train) from Tokyo.

• Hakkaisan Junmai Ginjo
• Kirinzan Junmai Daiginjo
• Dew Drops (Buna-no Tsuyu) Tokubetsu Junmai

• Taki, Maeda's manager tells me that Dew Drops could be enjoyed cold, hot, or room temperature with enjoyment of the various characteristics.
