Would you like to have some St.Patrick’s cheer and celebrate with some Irish Whiskies.. here in is the link

St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated annually on March 17th to honour the patron saint of Ireland, marking his traditional death date. Originally a religious feast day for the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, it has evolved into a global celebration of Irish culture featuring parades, wearing green, and consuming traditional foods like bacon and cabbage. 

While blue was traditionally associated with St. Patrick, green became popular due to Ireland’s nickname, the “Emerald Isle,” and the green in the Irish flag.

Facts you might have not known about St. Patrick’s!

The “SAKURA” Awards started its history in 2014 as the first international wine competition judged solely by women in Japan. Chaired by Yumi Tanabe, an active and leading wine educator in Japan, “The Awards” has grown gradually and now become the largest and the most important wine competition in Asia with over 4,000 items entry from across the world. The competition results always draw keen attention from both Japan and abroad, as it has encouraged the evolvement of new wine selection criteria from Japanese women’s perspective and further activation of wine culture and market in Japan is widely expected. The Sakura Awards has three goals, namely, finding wine suitable for home-cooked meals, increasing wine consumption, and expanding and supporting women working in the wine industry.
