Looking back on the beauty of this year, the most memorable thing is that I drank the first truly amazing sake in my life in Japan, and since then I have embarked on the road of no return for sake. In order to learn more about sake, after returning to Taiwan, I decided to obtain a sake certificate. After drinking all the way, I not only had a sharper taste, but also met many like-minded friends. In particular, I would like to thank the sake master Xiaobao for sharing a lot of sake knowledge.
Taking advantage of the end of the year, I especially want to sort out the most impressive sake I have drunk in 2024, and record my personal favorites by Tier classification. Of course, I hope there will be more opportunities to taste and share more sake in the future.
The following rankings are purely personal preferences and do not represent any professional evaluation. They are for the reference of sake colleagues only!
