This guided sake experience explores Japanese sake through the concept of terroir in the heart of Tokyo. Hosted by historic Kahoku Sake Brewery, it is engaging and accessible, even for first-time sake drinkers.

Guests start with a tasting of four sake styles, learning to identify sweetness, acidity, and aromatic versus rich profiles using an interactive tasting sheet.

Next, they discover how Daigo’s climate, water, rice, and koji culture shape Kahoku Brewery’s sake, paired with regional specialties such as Daigo’s brand chicken (Shamo), dried sweet potatoes, and sashimi-style konjac.

A hands-on sake lees experience follows, featuring a naturally sweet dessert sake made with amazake liqueur, a traditional fermented rice drink. It highlights the Japanese philosophy of sake-making, where every part of the rice is used with gratitude leaving nothing wasted.

The program concludes with a casual completion ceremony, where participants receive a Sake Terroir Certificate, take commemorative photos, and enjoy a premium souvenir. More than just a tasting, this experience offers a relaxed and educational journey into the craftsmanship, culture, and regional identity of Japanese sake.
