We are back! Sake on Air's long summer hiatus is over and you can expect lots of new episodes in the coming weeks and months. Starting off is an interview of Xavier Thuizat, sommelier extraordinaire, about his new sake project with Daishichi Sake Brewery, how to pair sake, the emotional experience of drinking sake and many other interesting topics.

Frank Walter interviewed Xavier after an event explaining the creation of The Gate, so there is a bit of background noise. But the conversation is definitely worth it.

Until then, kampai!
