Joto Sake Hybrid Tasting (February 25, 2021)

Join us virtually or in-person on Thursday, February 25th at 7:00 PM for Joto Sake tasting with Ryan Mellinger, Joto Sales Manager for Northeastern & North Central U.S.!

Transport yourself to Japan with this Japanese Sake + Snack Kit! Ryan Mellinger will be teaching us about the various types of sake and her favorite Japanese snacks to pair with them. We will learn about both classic sake styles and some more new and fun types including a fruit sake made with Japanese Yuzu.

Joto is Japanese for “highest quality” and is one of the leading artisanal sake portfolios in the U.S. Joto’s portfolio of sake represents multi-generational, family-owned, jizake (local) breweries. These breweries are located throughout Japan, producing sake in small batches with locally-raised indigenous rice varieties, offering flavors and styles ideal for a range of cuisines.
