Comments on: Drink sake night — but I don’t know sake! http://www.drvino.com/2011/03/25/drink-sake-night-junmai-shirakawago/ wine talk that goes down easy Wed, 22 May 2013 03:17:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Jim http://www.drvino.com/2011/03/25/drink-sake-night-junmai-shirakawago/#comment-340405 Jim Thu, 31 Mar 2011 15:50:44 +0000 http://www.drvino.com/?p=8700#comment-340405 I thought Drink for Japan was an excellent idea and did it last Friday as well…and also chose a nigori sake. I chose Rihaku’s and it was excellent, both alone and when turned into a cocktail.

PS: A distiller pal recommended Suntory whiskeys for those who just aren’t into sake.

I’ve tried to a few nice bottles but each time I just wished I had grabbed a bottle of wine instead. I hear that there are some very good Japanese Whiskies as an alternative to support the cause.

In my mind sake is tied to hibachi. This is a good time to change that notion in my mind.
