2009 Fall Akita Sake Tasting

If you can count on one thing, I would say it’s that the folks involved with the Akita Sake Club know how to throw a sake party! It’s that time of year again, and I was lucky enough to snag an ticket to the wonderful and fun Akita Sake Club sake tasting!

This time around, there was a great selection of sakes from Akita but also from other prefectures, too! A great time was had by all and I really enjoyed this chance to taste some old, new and reacquainted sakes.

IF you want to go to the next Akita Sake Club sake tasting event, keep your eye on my Sake Event Listing (subscribe to feed here). I’ll post it there for sure.
