    Prefecture Profile: Exploring Oita with Chris Johnson
    Jun 21 2024

    Episode 168. We are off to explore the sake scene in another region of Japan! This time it is beautiful Oita Prefecture! As we don't know much about Oita, despite there being 33 sake breweries there, we needed to phone-a-friend. Luckily for us, our buddy Chris Johnson (aka The Sake Ninja) lived for 3 years in rural Oita on the Jet program. Chris gets us up to speed on the charms of Oita as well as the local customs and food culture. We also hear tales of Onsen that are so hot, they are known as the Seven Hells as well has compulsory sumo wresting and a drinking game or two thrown in for good measure. We also taste Wakabotan sake, a newly exported Oita brew. Let's explore together what Oita has to offer! #SakeRevolution

  • Funky Packaging: Kikusui Funaguchi Smart Pouch

    Funky Packaging: Kikusui Funaguchi Smart Pouch
    May 29 2024

    Episode 167. If we think about sake, usually an image of a glass bottle pops to mind. But if we scratch the surface and investigate a bit more the way that sake is packaged and shipped, there is a world of variety out there you may not have considered! This leads us to our latest series we are calling "Funky Packaging"... think of it as sake beyond the glass bottle. Cups, bags, paks, and today's packaging - the Kikusui Funaguchi "Smart Pouch". It's kinda like a Capri Sun and a boxed wine had a baby. This is definitely not your old school glass sake bottle. The spout allows for quick and easy dispensing with no oxygen exposure and the pouch itself stands up on it's own without a box. Listen in as we explore another variation of funky packaging. #SakeRevolution

    Funky Packaging: Maneki Wanko
    May 18 2024

    Episode 166. If we think about sake, usually an image of a glass bottle pops to mind. But if we scratch the surface of exploring how sake is packaged and shipped, there is a world of variety out there you may not have considered! This leads us to our latest series we are calling "Funky Packaging" - think of it as sake beyond the glass bottle. Cups, bags, pouches, and today's inaugural packaging - the Tetra Pak Juice Box. Could this form factor we know from our school lunchbox be a good one for sake? In this episode, John and Tim think INSIDE the box to explore what is going on with sake in juice box packaging. Is the sake worth the squeeze? Let's find out together!

Demystifying sake the fun way

I’m not a huge podcast fan but I love Sake Revolution. Sake is mysterious; Timothy and John are on a mission to lower the bar to entry for all of us. What is it? How do I drink it? What should I drink it from? What does it taste like? These are questions they answer and more. With guest interviews and deep dives into products this is a fun way to learn about sake. Build your appreciation of sake and enjoy the sound of sake being poured into a glass.
