I booked this tasting for my brother who is a fiend for sake, but my husband and I are not big drinkers. This was an incredibly fun adventure! Emiko is so knowledgeable about the entire process and brought laminated pictures to demonstrate her points! She's had such an interesting life and worked in several breweries herself! I knew nothing about sake aside that it was made from rice and now I can tell you all about that rice and what happens to it! And that was just the learning part! The drinking part was even better! Luckily at the location, she was able to grab them all so easily and then we could buy any of the ones we liked! It was so charming how much she new about the old AND new breweries. We tried so many different sakes I feel like an expert now! We got to learn about where each was made and their families of breweries! Emiko is so charming and personable I can't recommend this experience more! She even helped us find a restaurant afterwards to help soak up all the alcohol! If you're even minutely curious about sake you should definitely book with Emiko and get an unforgettable experience!!

My family from the US and I learned a lot about sake, and we got to try various delicious sake at the store. Eriko was a fantastic host. She explained the process of making sake and answered our questions with patience. I could feel her passion for sake from the way she talks about her favorite breweries in the country. The bar was a bit small but there was space for a big group of 5 (and we are not Japanese-sized!) We recommend this experience for those who are new to sake and are looking for an English-speaking guide.
