Tasting Class: Exploring Japanese Sake

Rice has been a staple in Japanese cuisine, and sake is enjoyed with unique food cultures developed in each region of Japan. Trends are showing that the demand for more premium products is compelling breweries to specialize in higher quality sake, as well as experiment with new styles and flavors. This has resulted in the growth of different categories of sake that may appeal to wine drinkers and pair more suitably with other kinds of global cuisine.

Featured Sakes:

• Joto Junmai Ginjo Sake
• Joto Daiginjo Sake
• Joto Junmai Nigori Sake
• Seikyo Takehara Junmai
• Eiko Fuji Ban Ryu Honjozo Sake
