Dinner at Umu Restaurant June 2016

Last month I has the pleasure of joint-hosting a wonderful sake dinner with Honami Matsumoto from House of Sake at the spectacular and prestigious Umu Restaurant in London’s Mayfair.

To ensure an intimate setting the dinner was strictly limited to 10 places. Chef Ishii prepared a sublime six course meal with delicious green tea and delicate pastries to finish. Each course was paired with a different sake from our portfolio and Honami-san carefully selected exquisite sake cups and other service wares to enhance the experience. Overall it really was a night to remember.

A big, big thanks to all those who came and, of course, to Ryosuke Mashio the Head Sommelier at Umu for his wonderful service. (more…)
