Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit and you will fall in love with its flavor once you tasted it. Its flavour is amazing – It’s tart and bitter, very aromatic, tangy and very fresh, all at once. And together with sake it is all about harmony and perfect combination, and not only because both are coming from Japan. Saffron is a stranger in the “Japanese family” of yuzu and saké but it is an amazing spice – complex in taste and sunny and full of joy in color and enhances the taste of the pearls turning them into little aromatic sunshines on the plate.
