Sake Flight in Osaka with an Active Sake Brewer

Imagine being welcomed with a smile, a glass of sake, and stories that transport you straight to the heart of Osaka’s brewing traditions. That’s exactly what awaits with Yuki Kume, a former sake brewer and your guide to all things sake. This two-hour experience is designed for everyone, whether you’re completely new to sake or have been exploring it for years. Yuki visits over 15 sake breweries a year. She tastes more than 500 sakes annually, but it’s his passion for sharing the culture and craft of sake that makes this experience unforgettable. The journey begins with a warm welcome and an introduction to sake brewing, setting the stage for a tasting of five carefully selected sakes. Each pour is paired with a small dish that enhances its flavor, making each sip a memorable discovery. Next, you’ll explore the nuances of different rice varieties and learn how temperature can transform a sake’s taste. Throughout the session, Yuki brings each sake to life with stories from his visits to over 15 breweries across Japan. Guests can ask questions, share impressions, and connect with the craft behind each drink. The experience concludes with a personalized “Sake Type Diagnosis” and a certificate to help you find sakes that suit your taste and enjoy them with confidence. Come for the sake, stay for the stories, and leave with a deeper appreciation for Japan’s iconic drink. Yuki looks forward to sharing his knowledge and helping you discover your perfect sake match.
