November 2010 Sake Tastings
Although Fall officially started in late September, for us it is the arrival of Hiyaoroshi, the autumn seasonal namazake that truly ushers in the season. In the next month we’ll be offering the full complement of available Hiyaoroshi at two of our tastings as well as a visit from our friend Mr. Yageta from the Fukumitsuya Brewery in Ishikawa and a first-time tasting of a delicious sake made from the usually-reserved-for-shochu black koji .
