Sake in Paris: Pairing with French Cuisine

24 brewers in Japan send their sake to 24 restaurants in Paris to create new dishes to be paired. This project was a part of the event "Japonismes 2018" celebrating 160 years of French-Japanese relations. One brewer is from Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture, which was ravaged by a tsunami in 2011. The brewer sent a video message to the French chef telling his story of making sake after the catastrophe. And thus, a new legend begins.
