Sake wa Junmai 2012 (report #4) : Sake tasting in Beechworth


After the sake tasting at The Grace Hotel Sydney, we had some small tastings at restaurants around Sydney and one in Victoria.

On 10th July, some of our guest brewers visited the restaurant "The Provenance" in Beechworth, Victoria.

An hour flight from Sydney and an hour drive to Beechworth

 The Provenance : the building was an old bank

 The dinner was casual and the brewers shared the table with guests.

 Raw garfish, puffed rice, dashi lime gel,
orange salt, nori powder, seaweed

 Butter sauteed cauliflower, pickled cauliflower,
brown butter gel, candied pine nuts, scallop floss

Sakes from Shinkame, Izumibashi and Umetsu

Thank you, Michael and The Provenance staff for hosting such a lovely event.

P.S.
Sorry I did not take pictures after the second course, we were too busy eating and drinking!
