Continuing with our goal of celebrating sake, SIO organized in the spring of 2014 the inaugural Toronto International Sake Challenge, Canada’s first-ever sake tasting competition. In total, 139 locally-available sakes, across 6 categories & submitted from breweries in Japan, the US & Ontario, were assessed by our esteemed judging panel, made up of sake experts, a wine expert & local chefs.
We are incredibly proud of this achievement, and encourage you to have a look through the Complete List of Award Winners — see if you find any of your sake favourites & be sure to look out for many of the winners to hit LCBO shelves in 2015!
