Learn everything you need to know about sake, just in time to celebrate World Sake Day on October 1.

First, you will learn that Sake is NOT rice wine — you’ll learn exactly what it is and how it’s made — but there are a number of aspects of the Japanese beverage to which wine drinkers can relate. Listen to sake expert Ryan Mellinger of Joto Sake explain how to choose a sake, how much you’ll pay for one, and how to enjoy it — including food pairings. Spoiler alert: it’s better cold than hot, and you can pair sake with MUCH more than sushi!
