My Story

THIS IS MY STORY

Danny is one of the first Master Sake Sommelier awarded by the Sake Sommelier Academy (SSA). He is a saké consultant to the Food and Beverage industry and is always actively promoting the enjoyment of saké and food pairings especially in the local Malaysian context.

He was featured in the international news media, CNN’s Culinary Journeys – Saké, speaking on the topic of Japanese Saké pairing with non Japanese Food.

 

Danny was also the successful Organiser and fellow Judge of the 1st Saké Sommelier of the Year competition held out of London in 2019.

 

Besides his Master Sake Sommelier qualification awarded by the SSA, Danny has also achieved the Advance Saké Professional certification awarded by the Sake Education Council,  Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) Certified Saké Level 3 and also the Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) Certified Wines Level 3.  And all these was still not enough.  Danny's thirst for more knowledge led him to also take up the Sake Scholar Course.

Danny's mission is to assist not only saké lovers to explore and discover the finer intricacies of saké enjoyment but also for diners to learn and appreciate the dish placed in front of them, all these through personal discovery.
