Clean, mineral notes mirror oceanic flavors; subtle malt sweetness complements delicate fish and shellfish
Rice paddy herb (also known as cha-om) brings fresh, herbaceous, slightly bitter and aromatic notes that beautifully complement the smoky, umami-rich flavors of grilled seafood. The herb's delicate citrus and anise undertones cut through rich fish oils while enhancing the Maillard reaction flavors from grilling, creating a harmonious balance.
