Summary "Booze journalist, expert and International Kikisake-shi--that's a fancy term for 'sake sommelier'--Jeff Cioletti is passionate about Japan's classic national beverage, but he's tired of it being so misunderstood. Sake been called 'exotic,' 'mysterious,' and even, at times, 'intimidating.' But Jeff's here to tell you that it's actually none of those things and he wants you to join him on his flavorful, unpretentious and de-mystifying journey across thousands of miles, centuries of tradition and hundreds of glasses of sake. Anyone who's enjoyed a good beer, wine or spirit from time to time and is looking for a new adventure is invited to come along"-- Provided by publisher.
