Episode 167. If we think about sake, usually an image of a glass bottle pops to mind.  But if we scratch the surface and investigate a bit more the way that sake is packaged and shipped, there is a world of variety out there you may not have considered! This leads us to our latest series we are calling "Funky Packaging"... think of it as sake beyond the glass bottle.  Cups, bags, paks, and today's packaging - the Kikusui Funaguchi "Smart Pouch".  It's kinda like a Capri Sun and a boxed wine had a baby.  This is definitely not your old school glass sake bottle.  The spout allows for quick and easy dispensing with no oxygen exposure and the pouch itself stands up on it's own without a box.  Listen in as we explore another variation of funky packaging.  #SakeRevolution
