Welcome!
Hello, and welcome to the Sake Sommelier Association (SSA), we are delighted you are interested in exploring one of history's three great ferments. Most people are familiar with wine (fermented fruit) and beer (fermented cereal), but only a few understand the metamorphosis from humble rice into intriguing Sake.
With increasing availability of Sake in the UK and specialist interest growing, we have created courses to open up the world of Sake to you. Our teacher is fully accredited by Sake Service institute of Japan, holding higher certificate in Sake Education. Regardless of the course you choose, our aim is ensure you become comfortable recognising, purchasing and indulging in all major styles of Sake.
What we do at the
