The Japan Sommelier Association (JSA) was founded in 1969 with the aim of promoting a better understanding of wine and other beverages such as sake, and their dissemination in Japan. While the term “sommelier” is often associated with wine, in recent years, JSA has turned its focus to sake and developed the Sake Diploma certification.
The Sake Diploma is now one of the most well-known and prestigious qualifications in Japan.
L’École des Maîtres du Saké Paris is the exclusive provider of the JSA Sake Diploma examination in France, held once a year. Please note that the exam includes both a theoretical part and a blind tasting of sake and Honkaku Shochu & Awamori.
