A Journey into Sake’s Delights

What a fun evening it was to learn all about sake from Yuki OJIMA MBA’20J Founder & CEO at Story of Sake, Ltd and Risa Aoki (CFO). First, we learned about his business, Story of Sake, a sake experience provider & tour operator in Yamagata and the basics of sake tasting. After that, we enjoyed the tasting of 4 different kinds of sake! Yuki and Risa kindly brought 16 bottles of sake from Yamagata for this event. Which one was your favorite?

Special thanks to Noriko Hanada MBA’10D who organized this event, Toru Nanami MBA’21D who had introduced Noriko and Yuki to each other and Clarice Yong, Event Director who supported them to make this happen.

We had well over 40 attendees including 10 current & admitted students. We were very happy to bring alumni and students together over sake. We had such a good time, all 16 bottles were emptied!

We look forward to seeing you again in future events!
