This was a great experience! We tried many different kinds of sake which were very different than the ones we’ve had in the USA. She showed us a presentation on the computer as well as some videos on how sake was made. We really enjoyed this fun and educational experience!

A great introductory session to sake. We really loved the lesson and the quiz. If you have 60 minutes, this is 100% worth it - if anything, try and do this BEFORE you hit the town and get a little knowledge and history under your belt!

Booked a sake tour on our first day in Japan as a way to become immersed in Japan and Seigo totally delivered. He is a total gentleman, with the knowledge of a scholar and skills and experience of a professional. We were very impressed by his in depth facts and historical context of every street, shop, and brewer. He is a certified sake sommelier and possibly the nicest, kindest person. We spent a great deal of time together talking about topics outside his wheelhouse too with great comfort. I would recommend this tour, and Seigo in particular, for anyone seeking an authentic, memorable experience.

Sake Tastings in Japan

Japan’s national beverage, Japanese sake is a must-try beverage when you’re visiting Japan. Also known as nihonshu, sake is a fermented rice wine that has been enjoyed for centuries. During a sake tasting in Japan, you can learn all about the production process of delicious sake, from polishing the rice to steaming, making koji and fermenting, and sake pressing and filtering. Made with just rice, water, and koji, Japanese sake seems like a simple beverage, but there are subtle differences in grades of sake and a wide variety of types that vary in complexity and flavor. With insights from a sake expert, you will explore the different types of sake, trying a variety of samples during sake tastings in Japan. Learn all about namazake, the “raw” unpasteurized sake, as well as grades of sake such as ginjo-shu and daiginjo-shu. There are sake tastings in Tokyo, Kyoto, Miyagi and more! Japanese sake tastings will open your mind and perk up your tastebuds!
