Hi Eric;
Well..... let's plan on the Sake intro in October... this will allow anyone
who wants to give it a try the time to give it a shot over the winter
months when it's best to do so. I promise to keep it short, relatively
simple, straight forward, and provide a sample of my attempt at a premium
grade Sake at 40+ proof. These are NOT available here in the states due to
tax laws and if you manage to find an imported commercial premium grade at
16% ABV  in this area, you're lucky indeed.
So if someone has access to a shop (One Stop or some place like it)
that MIGHT have these, please bring a premium commercial example such as
SakeOne style products made in Oregon.
Hoping to make it to the meeting this time....
David
