Excellent second kit - so well packed and the cards are a wonderful touch with good detail on how to serve. Glad I stayed a member. The very first sake I opened was one of the best I've had - excited to try the other two which I've not seen before.

Hi Lucas, So glad to hear you are enjoying your sake! If you find something you really like, make sure to check if we have the full size bottle.

I don't have a whole lot of options on sake here where I live so this box is AMAZING. I get to try other types of sake at random, and it comes with cards to help remember which ones you tries just in case you wanted more. The cards also say how to server it, what it pairs with, and other information like the origins of it. Overall I'm glad I decided to try it out.

It's been a blast being part of the monthly sake club - I've uncovered some new favorites, and have started to learn even more about what I like and don't like. You make this incredibly approachable, and I love that you are supporting a lot of smaller breweries. I hope more people discover sake, its a beautiful and elegant spirit.

A fun introduction to the world of sake. This service allows you to have a structured guide into different types of sake and expands your options more than what is available locally. No guesswork required, or googling what's on the shelf. It's great to have the food pairing recommendations as well. Then once you know what you like, their store is available to supply your demand.

2 of the 3 bottles were great, but one was leaking and half empty when it arrived.

Nice offerings, including some that are not on the website (though I would have loved the opportunity to buy more!) What really drew me to leave a review though, was the customer service. A bottle arrived broken and was very easily replaced. Ended up being my favorite out of the monthly box too :)

My first box was amazing - I had one Sake that I loved and the other two were ones that I've seen before and was wondering. One of them was very good, and following the directions on temp, made it more enjoyable. I wish there was a bit more guidance on pairing and more exact temperature recommendations, however, the sampling was fun. A family member signed up a few days later and got 2 different ones, so I am curious how these are selected and why each box is different in same month.

Hey Lucas, We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your Sake Box and we appreciate your feedback regarding our info and pairing cards! As for your concern about the line-up, it can change during the same month depending on availability as some Sake are quite rare and not even available in Japan. Also thank you for recommending our service to your family!
