Sake News – Get Ready For “Dan Week!” 20% Off Legendary Nama Yamahai
All Day, All Dan, and All Week!
Yes folks, we get very lucky in June, because we are celebrating a sake that True Sake Alumnus Matt Reifenberg refers to as, “Dan Good.” Yup, for one entire week we are highlighting this very important sake for you to try, or stock up on that is one of the best food pairing brews in the business. Need proof? Look no further than San Francisco’s very own Kuma Sushi where Chef Ryo has Dan on their awesome sake list, and pours a ton of it! Wait, I thought Dan Nama Yamahai was “exclusive” to True Sake as one of their True Sake Selection brews? You are right, but the mission of TSS sakes is for True Sake to have an exclusive brew for you, but we also let these TSS brews go out to restaurants that are smart enough to use their magical powers.
Are your interests piqued now? They should be, because this wild and wonderful Yamahai Junmai Ginjo Muroka Nama Genshu is a glorious beast in the bottle with tons of flavors and attitudes. Imported for us by the dynamic forces at Sakeman (they share the back label logos with TSS), this sake is what it’s all about. Using excellent “Bizen Omachi” special brewing rice, and the traditional “Yamahai” sake brewing technique without charcoal filtration “Muroka”, and undiluted “Genshu,” this brew is magically wild and powerful, but drinks smooth and rich for a full-bodied ricey and umami experience.

Why one week? We need more time to holler about this sake and shout out why we are so lucky to have it! And why you are so lucky to have access to it! Trust me when I say that there are other retail stores that would die to have this “Dan Good” sake in their portfolio, so we feel that we should shout that out for a week or so! And 20% off? Damn! We mean Dan!
Circle your calendar for Dan Week June 15th - 21st and get ready to Dan all day and all week! And remember that Father’s Day is June 21st, and Dan would make the perfect Father’s Day gift! A bottle of Dan for the old man! Yah! So easy and so awesome.
And join us Saturday, June 20th at True Sake where Dan will be poured with two other Omachi brews for a Dan-tastic Saturday tasting. (Please see the in-store tasting calendar for June in this Newsletter below)
Lastly, stay Dan-tastic on Instagram with KJ running our social media empire all the while keeping you posted with Dan info, Dan stories, Dan celebrities, Dan recipes, and Dan shout outs to awesome sake people like Erika Haigh, a London-based sake importer and restaurant owner who actually turned me on to Dan in the first place.
