“Great service if you are looking to expand your knowledge of sake or find they types you like. Received my first box this month and everything went exactly as described and my box looked exactly as shown. I love that they go the extra step to include information about each one in English. I live in a state with extreme heat and did not have any problems with quality. Keep in mind this is a service - the goal isn't to get you the biggest bottle of alcohol for the lowest cost. You are paying for three main things; Freshness (much of the distribution chain is streamlined through this service), Convenience (delivered directly to you rather than going to a store), Service (different bottles are curated with food pairings/seasonality in mind).
You are notified every step of the way about what is happening, when things will ship, when you will be charged next and what to do if you want to pause/end that charge before it hits, so it's not a huge commitment. I ordered one box to try it but decided to leave the subscription running after getting the first one.
Two features I think would be good to add in the future would subscriptions more focused on preferences (like some sort of preference quiz you can take beforehand) and the ability to add on other items, perhaps at a discount or free shipping or something to go out with your order (similar to how makeup subscription services offer you a limited time to upgrade or add on items with that month's shipment)”
“I've only purchased one bottle, but so far, so good! The site design is clean and straightforward. The reward system is fun. And the selection is incredible! Here's to more sake in your future (and in mine!).”
“Tippsy offers an excellent selection of high-end sake. The selection goes beyond the large brands (the Kobe and Kyoto brewers) that dominate most American stores, to the much-less-well-known premium regional (and even smaller) brewers. The result is an endlessly fascinating variety of sake to taste.”
“Tippsy is my go to spot to get a fantastic selection of great sake. Shipments arrive in a timely fashion and the site offers a wealth of knowledge for anyone who is just starting to get into sake.”
“So very happy to have found Tippsy sake! I couldn't get decent Sake where I live! Now its delivered to me! The best brands at excellent prices and I love the rewards! I have already ordered twice and will most likely be a lifelong member!”

“yet again Tippsy has provided great sake and information about each bottle. Very good and quick customer service. If you are learning about Sake or already know plenty you will appreciate Tippsy.”
“Made my first order with Tippsy. It was delivered fast and the selection, quality and description of sakes is amazing. Can't wait to subscribe to the monthly sake box!”
“My first box from Tippsy came quick and offered a nice selection to start with. The emails that came after delivery were amazing in helping me understand preparation/serving, such as temperature. I'd love to see food pairing recommendations. The only curious part is why a family member got 2 different Sake's in their first box, as they ordered less than a week apart from me, and it was same month.”
Hey Lucas,
So glad to hear you enjoyed your sake and our services!
While it is rare, our monthly line-up can change depending on availability as some bottles are quite rare and not even available in stores in Japan.
We hope you will continue to enjoy our Sake Boxes and if you ever have any questions please do not hesitate to let us know.
