From Song Cai Distillery:
A take on traditional rượu cái (Vietnamese fermented rice wine) made purely from the fermentation of two types of native rice with an 18-month solera-style maturation in oak and terracotta amphorae.
The wine is a bold expression of Vietnam’s terroir - fermentation is carried out exclusively by native microbes and the wine is left to age on lees in the tropical climate before being bottled - no filtration or pasteurization.
Distinguished by bright acidity and distinct savory umami, think sake that drinks like an oloroso sherry / vin jaune. Khà works well by itself or in cocktails and fits into the natural wine category as well as sherry / oxidative wine category, making it versatile in application in the kitchen as well as bar.
