Meet, Sip & Discover Sake — Dry vs. Fruity

For our first gathering, the theme will be: Dry vs. Fruity Sake 🍶 ◆ What we’ll do We’ll get together in a private home in San Francisco’s SoMa area, near the former Twitter building, and taste a small selection of sake side by side. We’ll begin with a short introduction to sake basics, followed by a guided tasting of each bottle while learning about the brewery, the sake itself, and the story behind it🌾 We’ll also serve small, one-bite food pairings so you can experience how sake changes when enjoyed with food. Note: Food pairings will be small finger-food portions rather than a full meal. ◆ Cost The total cost will be approximately $21–$25 per person. \- For each event\, there will be 4 different bottles of sake (750 ml each), with a total cost of around $160. \- The 10 of us will split the cost\, which comes to roughly $16 per person. \- I’ll also prepare small finger foods to pair with the 4 different bottles\, which will be around $5 per person. Please note that there is no markup, and the organizer does not make a profit from the event. ◆ Group Size We keep the gathering small, at around 10 people, so everyone has a chance to taste, talk, ask questions, and share their impressions. ◆ Location & Time Thursday, November 19th, 2026 6:45 PM–8:30 PM The tasting session will begin at 7:00 PM. Washburn Street, San Francisco, CA The exact street number will be shared after sign-up.
