Some sakes are light and delicate, others robust and full-flavored. This month’s Aftertaste focuses on those that go best with Hawaiian foods like lau lau, lomi salmon, chicken long rice, sweet potatos and kalua pig. The event kicks off with a 10-minute talk and demonstration on how the mysterious “sixth taste” umami contributes to sake flavor. After that the sampling starts with a total of 36 junmai, ginjo and daginjo sakes, including gold and silver award winners from the 2007 U.S. National Sake Appraisal. At 7:00 p.m. the Hawaiian Buffet opens for more reflective sake tasting and socializing until 8:30. Reservations may be made online through the following link: Aftertaste Hawaii Online Ticket Purchase or call Pua at 222-5591. All sales are final and attendance is limited to 50 persons.
