Ask Beau - "Should I do sake this Thanksgiving?"

Posted by Beau Timken in 2009, Ask Beau, Newsletter, November
turkey The email was quite short. It was quite simple. And it was very to the point. A friend from Boston asked," Should I do sake this Thanksgiving - and will my wine friends and family understand?"

My reply was equally short and to the point: "My God - why not?"

For six years I have been asking/begging/tricking/by-hooking-and- crooking/convincing/urging/prodding/plugging/pushing people into drinking sake at their bird-day feast! Why? Because I believe in it! It works - does that sound lame or like some Colt 45 malt liquor commercial? It's true. It's so very true - the combination of a starch beverage and fowl plus all of the fixens make great dancing partners. And why wouldn't they?

For those who are new to the Newsletter let me re-print some of my past Thanksgiving pleadings - I'm certain that you do not need convincing - or do you?

Ahhhhhh Turkey Day 2008! Yes - it is that time of the year for me to get you to think outside of the box in regards to your holiday dinner! I have been doing it year-in and year-out since the beginning - my 3rd issue of the Newsletter was the November Issue where I said - give it a try! I have continued to ask and will continue to do so - As many have pointed out that I have become jaded in regards to wine - I will not make the necessary comparisons. BUT sake is different!
