Great shop with a large selection of sake, whiskey, and beer. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. I usually stop by before going to dinner and they’re always helpful and knowledgeable with recommending a sake that will pair well with the restaurant I’m going to.

Really great little store. Wish I had more time in Honolulu so I could come back and try more.
