  • Slinging Sake with Sake Samurai Adrian Goh
    2024/11/06
    In our latest Podcast Cindy Bissig and Frank Walter had the pleasure to welcome no other than Singapore’s first Sake Samurai - Adrian Goh, the director and chief educator at Inter Rice Asia, IWC judge and organizer of one of Singapore’s biggest Sake Matsuris!For anyone unfamiliar with what a Sake Samurai is or how to become one, it is a prestigious title bestowed by the Japan Sake Brewing Young People's Council, an organization of young brewers from all over Japan, every year since its conception in 2005. Only 3-5 people are given this title each year, which is a huge honor to receive. Although as Adrian put it, it is also a responsibility pledging to keep promoting sake and the people and communities surrounding it.Since starting his career in nihonshu in 2013, Adrian has been incredibly busy. In the last 11 years, he has visited more than 130 sake breweries in 35 prefectures, changed the structure of his business in the face of adversity during the pandemic, and has been able to introduce sake (and other beverages) in a fun yet educational way to many Singaporeans and beyond the countries borders. He also became a recent graduate of the JSS Shochu Academy. This is bringing good news as we may see more Shochu coming to Singapore.But with all this focus on business, we also learn about the importance of his family and their unconditional support. As well as how he purposefully is trying to recreate the same spirit in his company, and we might say he is doing a very good job at it.

  • Koji Cocktails with Sam Boulton
    2024/10/30
    Sebastien Lemoine, Chris Hughes, and Miho Ota sit down with Sam Boulton, author, mixologist and drinks consultant to talk about his new book, “The Art of Mixing Koji Cocktails.” Sam is based in Birmingham, and is one of handful of experts on Japanese booze in the UK. He was a participant in this year's Advanced Shochu Academy in Kagoshima, and then spent almost a month visiting distilleries and breweries around the country after the program ended. He has also started a podcast “The Izakaya Happy Hour” and has written a book on vermouth. You can find out more about him at his website: www.kokushu.info or his instagram (@boultononbooze). Sam came and made two cocktails from Japanese ingredients for the team and then talked about the sake and shochu scene in the UK and some of the positives and negatives to the slow but steady growth in popularity of shochu as a cocktail ingredient. The conversation also dives into how bartenders can incorporate a Japanese spirit into their standard line up without going overboard or spending too much.

  • What even is a Sake GI?
    2024/10/23
    Many people will be familiar with the word GI (Geographical Indication), especially if they are familiar with wine. Famous GIs are known around the world like Champagne or Prosciutto. But what about sake? Does sake need a GI system? What does a GI actually mean? Where do we find these regions in Japan and does GI make any sense in the sake world?Our regular hosts, Chris Hughes and John Gauntner unravel this somewhat controversial topic with Ken Takehisa, the CEO of Sake Edge and Monten. Ken is an expert on the topic and has closely worked with the National Tax Office of Japan, to actively seek out, create, and introduce new GIs around Japan.The conversation focuses on the definition of GI, the advantages and disadvantages of GI, and challenges applying GI to the sake industry. We also tried to get a better understanding about how sake GIs are created. He spoke about not only the necessary paperwork, but also the consensus building (or not building) process that is required to create a new GI for a region or prefecture. As always, if you have questions or comments please do share them with us at questions@sakeonair.com or head over to our Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook we would love to hear from you! We’ll be back very soon with plenty more Sake On Air.
