Saké (pronounced “sa-kay”):
An alcoholic beverage brewed using water, rice, and koji mold as its main ingredients.
Nomi (pronounced “noh-mee”):
Japanese word meaning “only.” When paired with the word saké, it is also slang for, to put it politely, “one who likes to drink.” (from the verb nomu, to drink)
We named our shop Saké Nomi because we sell only premium saké, and we hope to create an atmosphere that will appeal to “drinking enthusiasts".

Johnnie just sample tasted a $1K bottle of sake. There being no shame in his game, he asked for seconds. You folks are in for a real treat, later this year. Kanpai!
Arriving today: Denshin Natsu ("Summer") Daiginjo Namazake! Sunflower yellow tint with notes of honeysuckle, chamomile, and roasted marshmallow in the nose. Soft, creamy mouthfeel, with significant weight. Pressed by the fukuro tsuri gravity drip method, which allows the sake to more fully express delicate, complex aromas and flavors. Very limited availability. Get in here and claim yours today! Kanpai!

Extended tasting hours today. We'll be here 'til 7-7:30, kind of accommodating all the sports ball games going on in the neighborhood. Kanpai!

Letting in flow (on the weekly glass pour menu), and making it snow (Daishichi Yukishibori namazake tasting). C'mon down and get in on this action. Kanpai!

We'll be catching up on some sumo matches this weekend, as Yokozuna Hakuho goes for the all-time career wins record. If you're into it (and, how could you NOT be?), please feel free to join us. Kanpai!

"Snowy" Sake, Sumo & Such
We're pleased to featuring Kasumi Tsuru Yamahai Junmai Ginjo on this week's glass pour menu. It features citrusy, floral aromas, and though light, soft, clean, and semi-dry on the palate when chilled, we think it expresses even more depth and savory characteristics at room temperature and perhaps just a bit warmer. Available by the glass, flight, and bottle, while supplies last. Kanpai!
