The first Sake Sommelier Qualification Course certified by Sake sommelier association will be held in Poland. Sushi chefs and wine sommeliers should pay special attention.
The instructor will be Sakamoto Hikoemon, an official instructor certified by the Japan Sake Sommelier Association. Sakamoto is one of Japan's leading sake experts, but he is also a famous wine sommelier who has had a long career at a Michelin-starred restaurant. The food standard in Poland is currently improving, but there are still not many people who enjoy sake. In Western Europe, sake is already considered rice wine and is served in a variety of restaurants, not just Japanese restaurants. Such an era will soon come in Poland as well. So here is your chance to become a sake professional right now.
This course takes place over three days, and is a short, intensive course that teaches you about sake in a total of 16 hours. From history to manufacturing methods and technical terms, and tasting 16 types of sake, you will become a sake professional in just three days. If you pass the final exam, you will become a sake sommelier at a later date, and the association headquarters will send you a certificate of sake sommelier qualification and a sake sommelier badge.
Anyone can participate. Why not become a sake sommelier and help promote sake in Poland?
The course is primarily conducted in English, but for those who are not fluent in English, Maciej Skrzypokowski, the first Polish sake expert to be certified as a sake sommelier, will provide support in Polish.
The event will be held for three days
19th May 11:00-17:00
20th May 11:00-17:00
21st May 11:00-15:00
The cost of the course is 2,850.00 zł gross per person and inclouded lunch for three days.
The event will be held at HANARE, located behind Sakamotoya.(ul Chmielna 24, Warszawa)
If you do not pass the final exam, you will have to retake the exam at a later date, which will cost an additional 280 zł.
Who will be the first person in Poland to deepen their knowledge of sake and become a sake sommelier? We look forward to seeing all the challengers.
