Had a fun time working out some delicious pairings with the newest cheesy folks on the Morn Pen.
Thanks so much to Mel and Shane from for hosting us and listening to me talk about sake for hours whilst sampling their delicious cheese range.
Ate and drank our body weight in cheese and sake, but discovered some divine pairings.
Looking forward to sharing some of them soon.

A few more photos from the big weekend of judging at the Australian Sake Awards in Sydney.

It is an honour to be involved with this event and it has been great to watch the competition evolve over the past 4 years.

A huge shout-out to all the JAMS.TV crew & fellow judge leadership crew. There is always so much behind the scenes work throughout the year, in the lead-up to 2 days of judging - that fly by so fast!

Big, big thanks to Mr. Ken Oda, from the National Research Institute of Brewing in Japan, who has been our international guest judge for 3 years running. Sadly, this was his final year with us and he will be greatly missed by the judges and crew in 2026.

Thank you to all the judges for all their hard work and for making the 4th annual Australian Sake Awards a truly enjoyable weekend in Sydney.

…and, that’s a wrap for another year!
A jam-packed weekend in Sydney for the 4th annual
Thank you to everyone involved.
This year saw more changes, including a new venue, a little restructuring of the final rounds and a couple of category changes.
Well done to all judges for a stellar job over the two days… long days… of a lot of tasting, discussion and a whole lot of fun.

Always delicious.
Lots more food enjoyed without pausing for a photo - due to being ravenous.
Pasta dishes were amazing as always.
Some favourites in the beverage line up including a Kanpai to Ken (miss you, dad) with Ine Mankai.
