Welcome to Sake Gumi Level 2, Umami Mart’s monthly subscription club for those who are seeking special bottles that are harder to find.

There are so many great bottles of sake that never make it to our shelves -- they are either limited, seasonal or just too “next level.” We’ve designed Level II for sake drinkers who want something extra special -- made in small batches by brewers who often only make sake for their township.

Whether it’s an earthy bottle of yamahai (sake brewed using traditional techniques), or a smooth daiginjo perfect for accompanying a dozen raw oysters, we will always choose bottles that will definitely start the conversation at your next dinner party. Every month, you will receive two different 720ml (24oz) bottles, accompanied with literature describing the sakes including pairing suggestions. Take it to the next level with Level II.

Here's what you get:

• Receive 2 different 720ml bottles of sake every month with tasting notes and pairing suggestions. Each sake is hand-picked by Yoko Kumano, Co-Founder of Umami Mart and Certified Sake Professional

• Explore limited edition bottles of sake, exclusive to members
