October 2009 Tastings

October is an exciting month for sake enthusiasts.  Nihonshu no Hi (Sake Day) on the 1st is when Japanese celebrate with  Hiyaoroshi, the  first release of once-pasteurized sake bottled in the spring. We’ll be offering two tastings for you to try it on its first availability in this country later in the month.

In the meantime, we’ll be reprising the popular Ume no Yado Yuzu-shu and Aragoshi Umeshu and debuting the new-to-our-shores Ninki ichi Junmai Ginjo on consecutive weeks.

Please join us for any and all as we celebrate the fall season at SAKAYA!
