Advertiser Staff

The Joy of Sake, the largest sake-tasting event outside of Japan, makes its way to Honolulu on Sept. 9 as part of a three-city tour.

More than 200 of the finest sakes in the world will be available to guests. They will be paired with appetizers from a dozen of the state's leading restaurants.

The event will be held from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the Hawai'i Convention Center. The tour will travel to San Francisco and New York City later this month. In all, 3,000 enthusiasts are expected to attend the three events.

Tickets are $65. A portion of the proceeds will support the nonprofit Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai'i, but only if they are purchased through the JCCH Sake Hotline at (808) 945-7633, ext. 45.

Tickets also are available at Fujioka's Wine and Spirits, at Marukai Wholesale Market and at www.joyofsake.com.
