I must say I liked them MUCH better than the Saké I drank in college (mostly pipping hot Saké primarily for Saké bombs), but like you, I'm still not convert. I'll try it whenever it's presented, and I can appreciate it... but it's no substitution for wine made from grapes (for me).Mary Cresslerhttp://www.vindulge.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-845443562474251961.post-83703776194929740772010-04-09T12:35:34.873-07:002010-04-09T12:35:34.873-07:00Awesome primer on sake, Tamara.
