December 2009 Anniversary Celebration and Tastings

Hard to believe but it’s been two years since SAKAYA opened its doors for the first time on December 8, 2007.  Since then we’ve been extremely fortunate to have welcomed countless visitors, befriended a number of them, and enjoyed sharing our experience and always expanding knowledge about premium sake with all.  Although opening SAKAYA was our dream, we had no idea that so many of you would embrace the idea with the excitement and enthusiasm that we’ve seen in our brief existence!

To express our gratitude for your incredible support and to celebrate our anniversary this holiday season, we’ve lined up back-to-back tastings of nuttin’ but the best this Friday and Saturday.  Yup, it’s an ALL DAIGINJO WEEKEND at SAKAYA! Thanks to our amazing importers and distributors, we’ll be pouring these and other ne plus ultra brews for you to experience and enjoy throughout this most festive month …

    Congratulations! I just enjoyed a wonderful box of six bottles, plus the “mystery” bottle you sent.

    May you have many years of success!

    I always recommend your shop to my Japanese clients, and they are always pleased so thanks for running an operation that helps me look good. Congrats on two years!

    How about putting an event calendar on your website or blog somewhere?
