Sawahime Week
Welcome back the Master from Tochigi. It has been 5 years, and we are finally reunited with Master Hiroshi Inoue. It was amazing, even though 5 years have passed, nothing has changed. Master is still as cheerful and passionate as ever.

I remember the time when Master Hiroshi introduced his world of sake with his sake master dinner, which revealed the secrets of the culinary world, and sake was the medium that brought it all together. He showed me how sake has more than one dimension and is more than just a drink. He inspired me to delve into the sake-making process to learn more.

He motivated me to work hard to find a way to promote sake with a focus on its value and appreciation, rather than just as a product.

Last week was Sawahime week, a reunion with Perth Princess fans who remembered Master Hiroshi from the beginning. What made it even more amazing for Master Hiroshi was how special this reunion was to him. I recently discovered that during the time Master Hiroshi was building his brand Sawahime, Australia was one of the first countries he exported to outside of Japan.

What is even more amazing is that Lion Oriental Foods Co. was the first retailer to ever promote Sawahime outside of Japan. Having this acknowledgment from Master Hiroshi is truly an honor and a privilege to stand by his brand, protect it, and keep it thriving after all these years.

Our two events are a demonstration and a dedication to reminding people how Sawahime entered Perth and how special it is to Master Hiroshi. They are also to celebrate the Sawahime fans and how Sawahime has captured the hearts of Perth sake lovers. It was a joyous reunion with our Sawahime sake lovers, creating an unforgettable memory that will last forever.

Sake warms my heart. 🍶 It's more than just a drink; it's a cultural connection, a whispered story in a cup. With each sip, you embark on a journey, tracing the delicate dance of rice, water, and koji. ✨

Often, we're unfamiliar with the rituals, the quiet respect that surrounds sake. Did you know the temperature of the sake can completely transform its flavor profile? From atsukan (hot sake) on a chilly night to reishu (chilled sake) on a warm afternoon, each serving is an experience.

And then there's the pouring. Never pour your own. It's a gesture of sharing, of connection. Pour for your companions, and they will pour for you. This simple act speaks volumes about community and shared moments.

Do you want to make beautiful memories with sake with us? Join us for an exclusive Sake Master Dinner where we'll explore these nuances and more. It's more than just a meal; it's an evening of exquisite pairings, guided tastings, and immersive cultural insights led by a renowned sake sommelier. It's a chance to truly understand the soul of sake, beyond the sip, and create lasting memories.

19/03/2025

Back when sake was still a whispered secret and culinary adventures were just beginning to unfold, Master Hiroshi unveiled a world that felt both ancient and utterly new. It wasn't merely about the liquid in the bottle; it was a deep dive into Tochigi, into generations of tradition, into a passion so vibrant it transcended any language barrier. He showed me how sake wasn't isolated, but a bridge connecting food, culture, and the very essence of a place.

His stories weren't lectures, they were invitations. Invitations to understand the soul of sake, the heart of the brewery, the dedication that went into every drop. And through his guidance, I discovered how sake could elevate a meal, how it could tell a story as rich as any history book.

My travels to his hometown, Tochigi, weren't just sightseeing; they were pilgrimages. I walked the same paths, saw the same landscapes that shaped his sake, and felt a profound respect for the dedication that fueled his passion. I understood then that this wasn't just about brewing a beverage; it was about preserving a legacy.

This wasn't just learning about sake; it was a transformative experience. It was a journey that shaped my perspective, broadened my horizons, and ultimately, helped me become the person I am today.

✨ My Sawahime Awakening: A Journey from Curiosity to Passion ✨

Rewind to 2015. I stood amidst our shelves, a little green, but brimming with a passion for sake that burned bright within me. Then, Master Hiroshi walked in, bringing with him the spirit of Sawahime. I was like an eager student, absorbing every word, every story, every nuance of his craft. Language barriers? They dissolved in the face of his infectious enthusiasm. His stories weren't just about sake; they were about Tochigi, about tradition, about the very soul of his brew.

I was far from an "expert" then, but I felt a connection, a spark ignited by Master Hiroshi's genuine love for his work. I learned that sake isn't just a drink; it's a narrative, a cultural tapestry woven with centuries of history. And Sawahime? It was my first, true love in the world of sake.

Fast forward to today, and that spark has grown into a roaring flame within me. I'm beyond thrilled to welcome Master Hiroshi back to Perth after all these years! It's not just a dinner; it's a reunion, a celebration of a journey that began with wide-eyed wonder and blossomed into a deep appreciation for the artistry of sake.

Join me for a special tribute dinner, a chance to rekindle those early memories and create new ones.

🍶✨ Dive Deeper into Sake: It's More Than Just a Drink ✨🍶

Let's share a story! My fascination with sake breweries began with a simple truth: knowing the brand means nothing compared to understanding what it stands for. It's about connection, history, and passion.

For Sawahime, that connection started with Master Hiroshi. I was like a schoolgirl, eager to hear his story. He spoke of Princess Sawa's hometown, "Shirasawa-juku," a water town where waterways and waterwheels still tell tales of ancient life. It was the first story that truly captured my heart.

Shirasawa-juku, a post town on the Oshu Kaido road, is a place where waterways have nurtured life and agriculture for centuries. Inoue Seikichi Shoten, Master Hiroshi's brewery, sits at its heart, crafting sake from the fertile soil and abundant water.

"Sawahime" itself is a story: "zawa" from Shirazawa (the local place name) and "hime" (princess), a symbol of love. It’s a desire to create sake that is loved by the community. "Shimotsuke" is the old name for Tochigi, their beloved home. As the saying goes, "a name says it all," and Sawahime embodies the clear, refreshing "zawa" and the gentle, elegant "hime."
