About this event

We are excited to invite you to our first comprehensive showing of our Japan Portfolio in well over a year, where we'll be tasting a range of sake and spirits from near and far! In 2020, we began to direct import a selection of craft sake, which allows for better pricing, fresher bottles straight from Japan, and some exciting new releases! Our latest shipment from the 2020-2021 brewing season has just arrived and is in peak condition. In addition we are now carrying some limited offerings from industry pioneer Kikuhime. This is a rare opportunity to taste some vintage expressions next to fresh batches of the same sake. We’re also welcoming a new sake from just across the East River: Brooklyn Kura! Founder Brian Polen will be here to take us through several of their delicate and nuanced styles; sake he is proud to show next to the best Japan has to offer. We look forward to sharing everything with you, Yokoso!

Session 1: 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Session 2: 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM
Session 3: 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM

About the company

Skurnik Wines and Spirits is an independent, family-owned importer and distributor of fine wines, spirits, sake, & cider headquartered in the heart of New York City. We taste, select, and offer for sale to the trade a high-quality, diversified portfolio from around the world.

The story of Skurnik Wines began in 1987 when Michael started the business with just a handful of relatively unknown wineries. Today, the company represents over 800 estates, most of which are family-owned-and-operated. We are the local distribution partner for these brands in eight direct markets: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and California. Beyond our distribution footprint, we also are a national importer for almost 200 brands to distributors in all 50 states.

Our vision, as described by the Skurnik family:

“We look for the best in every category, at every price range, so we can bring products to market that people love.”

Michael Skurnik, Founder & CEO

“We provide an alternative to the larger distributors and brokers, and a service to smaller wineries. Our partners and customers are thrilled. We run our business like it’s a small company but we continue to grow.”

Harmon Skurnik, President

“As a family business through and through, we can keep ourselves grounded while encouraging smart growth. We’re dedicated to bringing the best wines and spirits to market for many years to come."

David Skurnik, Vice President of Special Operations
