Since the start of this year, two bars have appeared at the quieter end of Orchard Road, offering craft sake, sake on tap, a hot sake programme, and other exclusive styles.
The latest is Nomi Dining Bar. Taking over The Horse's Mouth at Forum The Shopping Mall, the new izakaya offers over 300 sakes with a focus on seasonal and rare bottles from all over Japan. Currently, 55 sake labels are available by the glass and in 180ml carafes.
The list is curated by certified sommelier Jack Lau, a jolly man who whirls off facts and figures, and interesting information about each bottle. He also deftly pairs sakes with bar bites and charcoal grilled dishes by chef Jing Chen, formerly of fine dining kaiseki restaurant Yoshi.
We begin our sake journey with a creamy and bright sparkling brew by Tsubosaka from Hyogo Prefecture. A starter of aburaage is matched with Raifuku x Fermier Fusion, a special edition Ibaraki junmai ginjo aged in red wine barrels. Subtly toasty with a mushroom-like flavour, it rounds out the earthiness of the puff's natto cheese filling.
