Nobu The Sake

Nobu The Sake is an elegant and fruity Junmai Daiginjo with fresh notes of pear, melon, lychee and peach, and also impresses with its floral taste. Very smooth on the palate at the beginning, the sweet fruit gives way to a long and delicate finish at the end. Nobu The Sake is produced exclusively by the Hokusetsu Sake Brewery for the internationally acclaimed star chef Nobu Matsuhisa, probably the most successful Japanese chef in the world .

About Nobu

Nobel, nobler, Nobu: Nobu Matsuhisa, born on 10 March 1949, is an award-winning and internationally acclaimed chef known for his fusion cuisine. He achieved fame by combining traditional Japanese dishes with Peruvian influences.

Nobu learned the sushi craft in Tokyo before he moved to Peru to open a sushi bar. At first he was challenged by the different culture as well as the completely different regional ingredients, but little by little his creativity was awakened. He tried out new dishes and developed the "Nobu-Style", which is highly praised and celebrated today.

Nobu opened his first restaurant under his last name Matsuhisa in 1987 in Beverly Hills. Matsuhisa was an instant success and became a magnet for food lovers and celebrities. It was here, in his first restaurant, that his long-standing friendship and business relationship with actor and director Robert De Niro began. De Niro was eager to open a restaurant in New York City together with Matsuhisa and was able to convince the talented chef to do so. In 1994 the first Nobu Restaurant opened in New York and was an immediate success. Today, there are 32 Nobu Restaurants on five continents, and all of them offer Nobu Sake from the Hokusetsu Shuzo Sake Brewery. In this sense: Kanpai!
