Sushi Chef Sweet Mirin (Sake) — 10 fl oz Bottles, Case of 6
Product description
This product is a traditional-style mirin derived from sake and sweetened for culinary use. It comes packaged as a case of six individual 10 fluid ounce bottles, each sealed for pantry storage.
The liquid is syrupy in consistency and carries the characteristic sweet-sake aroma of authentic mirin. Bottles are intended for standard kitchen use — add to sauces, glazes, and marinades, or stir into rice and noodle dishes for a rounded sweetness and gloss.
