Where does sake belong in the world of sommellerie?
The answer is simple: at its very heart. In this episode of A Sommelier’s Insight, we speak with Hiromi Iuchi of the Japan Sake and Shochu Makers Association about sake’s growing presence in restaurants around the world.
Instead of focusing on the technical aspects of Sake, this conversation delves more into how sake can work in the restaurant environment, challenges preconceptions of sake and talks about the importance of serving sake properly. In doing so we answer the question of why every modern sommelier should develop a deeper understanding of Japan’s most celebrated drink.
