sake master blog
Last Monday, I finally got to visit Australia’s only sake brewery called GO-SHU, located about 50kms west of Sydney, NSW.
It was my friend Andre Bishop san’s idea (from Nihonshu sake bar) and I am very glad that he made an appointment for the KURA (brewery) tour and took me there with him. (Thank you so much, Andre san
)
Since GOSHU was established in 1988, they have been producing quality Australian made Sake to inside and outside of the country. GOSHU’s managing director Allan Noble san & head brewer (Toji) Uchiyama san were both very nice and friendly and they showed us all around the KURA.
I was quite impressed by the set up and of course, the taste of their products, especially GO-SHU JUNMAI DAIGINJO was so fresh & subtle.
Thank you again to Allan san, Uchiyama san & Andre san for this great experience.

Good Food & Wine Show 2009 Melb was finished last monday very successfully. There were almost twice more people at the show compare to the last years maybe because of Mr.Gordon Ramsay.
At Sake Japan booth, we have served
over 10000 tasting cups (which is worth about 150L of Sake & Umeshu!!) in 4 days! My good surprise was, this year, more people were asking for Sake than Umeshu. Considerring last year was totally opposite, I recognized that more people are stepping into Sake world finally. I am very happy with that fact honestly.
Next Sake Japan Event will be held at
The Good Food & Wine Show Sydney, Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre from 3 July (Fri) to 5 July (Sun)
If you would like to try some quality Sake & Umeshu, purchase some sake bottles or ask me any questions about sake, please come to visit Sake Japan Booth.
Hope to see you there!
