Sake-Pairing Roasted Monkfish & Katsuyama Lei

Das passende Pairing Katsuyama Lei

Katsuyama Lei is served at 6-7°C in a universal glass. The sake should not be served too warm. The warmer, the more pronounced the sweetness. The combination with our monkfish lives from the interplay between the fruity sweetness of the sake and the spiciness of the lentils. The sweetness and spiciness buffer each other so that neither one nor the other dominates. The black pudding is also an important ingredient in combination with this sake. The black pudding has the typical interplay of sweetness and spice, which is enhanced by the sweetish sake flavours. The slightly bitter finish emphasises the roasted flavours of the monkfish. The fresh chives bring out the fine mint and green tea flavours a little.
