While galavanting around Asheville recently, we ended up in the River Arts District, and in search of Sake. We stopped by Blue Kudzu and to our surprise, we had the opportunity to taste the first batch of Sake ever brewed! We added an array of delicious appetizers to the mix, and wow, what a drinking and dining experience. Michael, who is on staff, hosted us and helped make it a night to remember. This spot is a little off the beaten path, but well worth the 5-minute trip from downtown Asheville.
I have to admit that I was not always the biggest fan of sake, it’s just not the type of flavor that I was expecting. That being said, I have been able to develop an appreciation for this ancient beverage over the years, and I’m very pleased to here that we have some talented local craftsman breaking new ground here in Asheville! Looks like I’m going to have to make my way over to the River Arts District soon.
