USE OF PROFESSIONAL TITLE AND TERMINOLOGY
You may not, legally or ethically, use the title “Sake Sommelier” 酒ソムリエ unless you have passed the Certified Sake Sommelier® examination and have been duly awarded this professional certification by the Sake Sommelier Association (SSA), who solely confer this title.
For the avoidance of doubt, and with reference to the Sake Service Institute (SSI), Japan; any qualification earned from the International Kikisake-shi 唎酒師 class provided by SSI (or any trainer or affiliated provider of theirs) confers the title “International Kikisake-Shi”, (with a literal translation of sake specialist or sake tasting instructor/teacher); it does not confer the title “Sake Sommelier” nor "Certified Sake Sommelier", as this is awarded solely by the Sake Sommelier Association (SSA).
