“I know it's hard to bring something to a holiday party and wonder if everyone is going to like it. But fret not, for you have found it: the ultimate crowd pleaser! It leans a touch on the drier side, but with plenty of sweetness reminiscent of picture perfect kohlrabi and golden apples. With its vibrant acidity, it is an extremely drinkable glass that everyone at the party will be reaching for!”

“Get cozy with this bottle of Tarumaru this holiday season! If you’ve never had a Taruzake (cedar barrel aged sake), or had a bad experience before, you are in luck because this bottle is the best way to experience this unique and often times under appreciated style. Tarumaru is a Yamahai Junmai sake that is aged in cedar barrels for 7 days (you almost never need to store sake in cedar for more than a couple weeks due to its strong aroma), the outcome is a stunning, elegant yet full-bodied sake that showcases the perfect harmony among warm citrusy spice, umami and acidity. It’s like walking through a temple wearing Le Labo Santal 33.”

“The weather outside may be frightful, but the sake can be so delightful! If you like clean, crisp, and dry sake, Hakkaisan is the perfect gift to yourself. Whether you crave a timeless classic like the Honjozo (300ml) or you want to let it snow with the special 3 year aged Yukimuro (720ml), both are guaranteed to keep you warm during any winter storm.”

“This one - Eau du Desir - is dedicated to all our wine lovers out there. As the name suggests, this highly-desirable bottle is racy and incredibly vibrant, with a touch of effervescence that will leave your mouth watering for more. It's the perfect companion from feast prep through your meal (and great for unwinding about the in-laws too!)”

“Bring the outside inside. Amabuki Ichigo is on our hit list because it's juicy and fun with layers of fruit tones and a delightful strawberry finish. This brewery is known to make outstanding sakes using flower and fruit yeasts - showcasing their combination of skill and creativity in each glass. Buy a bottle for yourself or for that holiday RSVP, you won't regret it.”

“Wow your friends and family this holiday with a stunning bottle of sake (or treat yourself cause you’re worth it). Kojimaya Untitled is a cedar aged Junmai harkening back to ancient methods of storing sake in large cedar barrels. Today, the method is reserved for premium sakes. This bottle is a stunner — layers of fruit balanced by a peppery, spicey hint of cedar. The bottle itself is gorgeous too, and could play double duty as a flower vase or candlestick holder.”
