Series Three: Sake Appreciation

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

In cooperation with Sozai Restaurant and Sake Lounge and True Sake, the Japan Society is proud to present our next Japanese Language & Cultural Experience Workshop: Sake Appreciation!

Matching food and sake is just like matching food and wine. It’s a fun, imprecise process that largely depends on your own unique taste buds. What is a perfect match to one may be the ultimate mismatch to another. The important thing is what’s oishii to you!

This informative tasting workshop will detail different types of sake and answer questions about the intricacies of food pairing. A variety of seasonal delicacies will be served during the tasting, pairing each sake with traditional and contemporary Japanese tapas, all created by Chef Mari.

Don’t forget, this is a language workshop and some sake-related vocabulary will be introduced. All Japanese language levels are welcome.

So please join us to learn, explore and taste the artistry of sake.

Space is limited; please RSVP by Monday, July 14th. Refunds will not be made after this date.
