Judge's Comment

"The service and hospitality provided in English were exceptionally polite and attentive. The host spoke excellent English, delivered an almost flawless presentation, and carefully answered all questions from the participants. The participants on that day were all from English-speaking countries, and everyone appeared highly interested in the host’s stories and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Since many travelers from abroad want to try sake, it is wonderful to have an opportunity to learn about the history and manufacturing process of sake before tasting various brands."
