The Tohoku area of northern Honshu, with its cold climate, excellent rice and abundant fresh water, produces many of Japan's finest sakes. For clarity and aroma, there's Yamagata. For bigger taste, there's Iwate and Aomori. Miyagi sakes are admired for their subtlety, Fukushima's for just the opposite. And for easy drinkability, it's hard to beat the sakes of Akita Prefecture. The evening's selection will consist of 16 daiginjo, 12 ginjo and 12 junmai labels, including gold and silver award winners from the 2010 U.S. National Sake Appraisal. Please join us for an evening of fun and surprises as we sample the delicious sakes of Tohoku paired with wintery Japanese comfort foods.
