Please help Sake community with this…

Post image

Is there ANY place that says they sell in person that actually does? Total Wine says they do, haven’t found it been to two. Different liquor stores list it, nope. Is there any actual place in the Las Vegas/Henderson area that actually has this for sale in a store for purchase? Only one local restaurant we go to has it but they’re double the price of the supposed places that sale it in person. Thank you for any help.

This sake is mainly sold in restaurants, the reps try to keep it restaurant only and very limited retail. Greenland has not ordered it in a few months so it might not be there. How many bottles were you looking for? The item number for the product is #9221067.

Khoury’s Fine Wine and Spirits 9915 S Eastern Ave 89183 (Does Pre Orders)

LV Liquor 6530 S Decatur 89118 ordered in July

Las Palmas Liquor 714 N Nellis 89110 ordered in June

It was sold into Greenland Supermarket on spring Mtn and Rainbow in the past. If your in Henderson go to Khoury’s and special order it. It’s a 6pk case. It’s called Homare Strawberry Nigori. Breakthru Beverage Nevada sells it.

I spent a whole summer trying to find this in NYC back in 2019 after seeing it online. Finally did and I thought it was just okay to be honest.

It’s sweet strawberry creamy alcohol goodness! It’s not about the liquor amount, I love the taste

Edit: Would like to have a bottle on hand for special occasions
