What To Expect
Do You Enjoy Sake? We offer a unique tasting experience featuring eight carefully selected sakes, exclusively available in Japan. Enjoy a fun and relaxed sake tasting journey! Start with Simplicity We'll begin with sakes that have a lower alcohol content, typically around 15-16%. There are options with even lower or higher alcohol levels, but we'll start with simpler sakes. Gradually, you'll taste sakes with more distinctive aromas and flavors. Enhance the Experience The tasting includes traditional Japanese snacks, allowing you to enjoy perfect pairings and explore how sake complements different foods. Sweet Finish Finally, savor amazake, a sweet fermented drink made from rice koji, which is also enjoyed as a dessert.

5.00We enjoyed our sake tasting. We tried 8 different types along with small food pairings. There was a nice variety of different sakis. Chihiri was extremely knowledgeable about the saki And was very friendly. I would recommend this tour to any one that wants to know more about saki.
