“I know very little about sake other than I like it. I wanted to learn more so I purchased a sample box. We have only received one box thus far but everything was quite tasty. The accompanying information cards was done quite well. I'm looking forward to my next box.”
“I bumped into tippsusake randomly, searching for information about a specific one and realizing there a few extended online store.
This site definitely has a large enough collection, is easy to navigate and use and has a friendly helper staff (I had a problem with creating my account, they were nice to help). Each sake has metric such as a "taste rating" showing acidity sweetness level, recommended serving temperatures and rough pairing. I would suggest to extend that section ("Fish" as s suggestion is vague - is this a tuna steak? shellfish? light seafood salad? sushi/sashimi?) but overall, the site is one of the most comprehensive site out there.”
“Im so happy I found this site! They have a very interesting sake selection - a good mix of some standards sakes and lots of new ones to try. Prices are very reasonable. This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship...”
“I received a sample of the Tippsy Sake subscription box and it arrived quickly.I spent my weekend with it while on vacation in Corpus Christi, TX and I can honestly say that I was surprised with how accurate the description of the sake was. With each box (I assume) you get a card detailing the sake; what it is, the type of flavors to expect, and a bit of history behind the blend of sake. I received three different types from the sample: Rich 80%, Aged, and Aqua all of them were of the Jozen brand. Each blend promised a distinct taste, for example Aged: fruit based, Aqua: brown sugar, Rich 80%: caramelized nuts. Surprisingly, my favorite ended up being Rich 80% and the reason why I say it's surprising is due to the fact that I usually dislike darker blends of alcohol, but the Rich 80% was very smooth and had a good taste to it. My family who let try all three flavors thought the Rich was a little too strong for them, and they have a much higher alcohol tolerance than myself so it was a bit odd to experience. Tippsy Sake wants people new to the world of sake, regardless of alcohol experience to be open minded to the beverage and their subscription service is a good start to get them in at $49-$59 a month. If you're a fan of alcohol and like to try new things, definitely give Tippsy Sake a go.”
“It was nice to find the specific bottle I was looking for. But I could not find my order after I registered so to make sure it went to a changed address I had to order it again. Price was not cheap.”
“Superb Customer Service !! Very friendly and helpfull !! Due to my fault the Sake had to be delivered a second time. Still Tippsy Sake represtantive gave incredible support. Thank you so much. Besides that, the Sake you can purchase is 1st class, even within Japan. Looking forward to the next one.”
“The monthly subscription has always been something to look forward to regularly receiving. The 3 bottles generally differ in taste and the cards that explain the sake origins and how they come to their final outcome are great.”
“I was looking for a specific Sake and found it on this website. I found other Sake brands I want to try based on the information the website provides for each Sake type. Since I live in California, the Sake was delivered well in advance of the suggested timeframe.”
“The sake was good , but the delivery from fedex was horrible. I never got the tracking order number . They sent the package to a completely different house, in a different neighborhood that wasn't even close to my house. They didn't do the adult signature to the person that was home, they left the box at the door and the fedex person signed for it. Thankfully the person at the other house was super nice and brought it to the house. But besides that the sake was great, I would like to reorder but I'm now hesitant due to Fedex.”
“As far as I know, Tippsy is the only way I can get rare sake that is usually only sold in restaurants. Great service and acceptable shipping times based on the need to keep things refrigerated during transport in these hot summer months!”
