True Sake Newsletter May 2007
Welcome to the May Issue of America's sake-centric newsletter. This is the first issue where I lead with an apology - probably won't be the last time! Then get wisked away to Niigata for a great interview with the international brand manager from the very well branded sake brewery called Hakkaisan. Canadian Chef Michael Pataran gets down with Tenzan, and take note of 3 great sake events in the month of May on the 9th, 21st, and 24th!

Consider this...
Sparkling Sake? Yes, sake does "sparkle" when left to do its thing, as the off product of fermentation is the release of carbon dioxide, which is bad for the environment but good for the tummy! If you haven't tried the bubbly True Sake has 9 sparkling sakes to choose from.
