Ryutenmon Chinese restaurant at the Westin Hotel Tokyo is releasing more of its original Shaoxing Chinese rice wine and holding a commemorative gala dinner Feb. 18 and 22 to mark the event.
Ryutenmon first released its 30-year-old original blend Shaoxing wine three years ago. The restaurant is now offering 8- and 12-year-old bottles in addition to the 30-year vintage that proved so popular.
The liquor was blended under the direction of executive chef Chin Kei Mei, who visited the Shaoxing winery in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, China, to direct the winemakers firsthand and witness the blending and bottling.
