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".

What the . . .?
No, it’s not an optical illusion (Johnnie doesn’t have the camera skills): that’s Dassai “39” Junmai Daiginjo in a 1.8L bottle. The real magic is when you figure out the value of this great size format: it’s like getting two and a half 720 ml bottles for less than $100!!
Kanpai to big quality in big bottles! (Go ahead and take that shelf out of the fridge to make room.)😉

Sake and Vinyl happening again this Thursday.
Take it away, Nomidachi Kevin . . .
“I hope this email finds you all well, and full of vitamin D from this magical sun-filled week. In the spirit of good vibes and good times, this Thursday we will be hosting another record night at Sake Nomi in Pioneer Square from 7-10pm, and we'd love to see you there!
This month's theme: Sounds and Soundtracks. We'll be playing tracks from our record collection that were either used in movie scenes, or by themselves evoke a scene yet to be written. Drop by to say hello, sip some sake and come on a sonic journey with us. It's casual, it's conversational, and a lot of fun, and we are pretty sure you'll hear some music you haven't heard before (at least not in this context).
Where: Sake Nomi (1st and Cherry Street).
When: Thursday, May 8th, 7-10pm.
Commute: tons of parking in the area at night, or public transit will get you very close.
Hope to see you there!!”
