💙 Sake Saturdays 🍶

This week’s gentle guide: Yamahai vs Kimoto.

Both are traditional brewing methods that rely on natural fermentation to create deeper, more complex flavours.

✨ Kimoto is one of the oldest methods in sake brewing, producing structured, umami-rich sake.

🍶 Yamahai evolved from Kimoto and often delivers bold, expressive flavours with earthy character.

Different methods, different personalities — both worth discovering.

đź’™ Team Hospitality Moment

Hospitality often lives in the small details — a glass carefully poured, a dish arriving at the table, a moment shared over good food and sake.

It’s these quiet moments that shape the experience at Namara.

We’re open Thursday–Saturday from 5pm. We’d love to welcome you.

Sake Saturdays 🍶

Ever wondered what “rice polishing ratio” means on a sake label?

Before brewing begins, rice grains are polished to remove their outer layers. The amount removed plays a huge role in the final flavour.

Higher polishing ratios tend to produce lighter, more aromatic sake, while lower polishing ratios create fuller and richer styles.

It’s one of the key reasons different types of sake can taste so distinct.

Join us Thursday–Saturday from 5pm if you’d like to explore sake in person.
