Wonderful sake testing! Highly recommend :) - This experience exceeded all expectations. To balance a tasting session over 2 hours with the right amount of facts and fun is hard to do but, our wonderful teacher Joe excelled at both. The guidance to test the sake in numerous ways, from traditional, to mixing it with food to enhance flavour and modern mixology was so interesting and helpful for us to feel comfortable exploring Japan for the rest of our trip. We rarely write reviews but this was worth it and can’t recommend it enough. Joe recommended us a huge amount of places to visit in Japan and even went to the length to source gluten free snacks and soya sauce for me to take home. Arigatōgozaimasu!!!
