As a continuation of the 40-year-old restaurant's deeply rooted passion for celebrating Japanese culture in Washington, DC and beyond, Perry's has recently launched an exclusive sake club. Every two months, sake club members will receive two bottles of unique sake hand-picked by Perry's sommelier Devin Sparks and James Beard award-winning Chef Masako Morishita. Inspired by her parents who met while working in Japan's sake industry, the sake club holds both personal meaning and serves as a point of national pride for Chef Masako. Similarly to the Japanese comfort food dishes served on the Perry's menu, Chef Morishita and the Perry's team hope the club's offerings have the power to evoke the hospitality and familiarity of her family home in Japan.
Our bi-monthly membership introduces a fresh theme every two months, starting at $98, with the option to add a premium bottle of sake for an additional $72.
Please note that membership is limited, but don’t worry—if spots are currently full, you can join our waitlist and be the first to know when a spot becomes available!

August/September
Effervescent, Unfiltered, & Unpasteurized: The Dynamic Side of Ginjo
Pickup: September 2
Dewazakura Junmai Ginjo Omachi "Jewel Brocade"
Class: Junmai Ginjo
Toji/Maker: Dewazakura Shuzo
Size: 720ml
Prefecture: Yamagata
Rice: Omachi
Notes: This brewery is renowned for being the first to offer refined Ginjo-style sake at an accessible price, with this standout bottling currently led by 6th-generation heir Yasuyuki Yabuta. Brewed using the rare, historic Omachi rice strain along with traditional Kanazawa yeast and pristine water sourced from Mount Hakusan, the result is a remarkably expressive Junmai Ginjo. It strikes an exquisite balance on the palate, blending deep, rich umbrella notes of honeyed stone fruit and warm grain with a clean, mineral-driven finish that shines both on its own and alongside rich cuisine.
Niwa no Uguisu Doburoku
Class: Daiginjo Nama
Toji/Maker: Tedorigawa
Size: 720ml
Prefecture: Ishikawa
Rice: Yamadanishiki, 500 Mangoku
Notes: This unpasteurized Daiginjo bursts forth with a radiant bouquet of honeydew melon, crisp Fuji apple, and delicate jasmine, underlined by a subtle hint of citrus peel. On the palate, it delivers a lively, dynamic energy, cascading with juicy layers of white peach, raw honey, and a touch of fresh cream. A subtle, micro-effervescent prickle and a whip of snappy acidity keep the texture exceptionally electric, driving the lush fruitiness straight into a snappy, slate-clean finish that leaves the mouth feeling instantly refreshed.
Sommelier Sparks & Chef Morishita's Pick
+$72 • 1 premium bottle
Dewazakura Tobiroku "Festival of Stars"
Class: Ginjo Sparkling Nigori
Toji/Maker: Dewazakura
Size: 720ml
Prefecture: Yamagata
Rice: Dewasansan, Haenuki
Notes: Produced via secondary in-bottle fermentation—much like traditional Champagne—this bottle-conditioned sparkling nigori offers a remarkably dry, crisp deviation from typically sugary cloudies. It opens with an intriguing nose of tart green apple, white peach, and a whisper of tangy yogurt. On the palate, a fine, lively effervescence cuts through a light, veil-like cloud of rice lees, unfolding clean flavors of Asian pear, persimmon, and soft citrus peel. Unlike heavier sweet nigoris, Tobiroku's snappy, "Brut-style" acidity and gentle astringency deliver a buoyant, refreshing mouthfeel that terminates in a tight, slate-clean finish, making it a surprisingly versatile partner for everything from rich fried dishes to spicy cuisine.
