Chris Johnson fell in love with sake and the culture and history that surround it during the three years he spent living and working in the Japanese countryside. Chris specializes in thought provoking sake-and-food pairing experiences that are approachable, yet rival the most serious wine and cocktail lists in the business. By combining his reverence for traditional Japanese flavors with a touch of Western ingenuity, he aspires to elevate sake beyond the confines of the traditional Japanese restaurant, and onto an international platform.
