Discover the fascinating etiquette and traditions behind Japanese sake in this fun and interactive cultural experience. Rather than simply tasting sake, learn the unique customs that have been part of Japanese social culture for centuries.
Find out why Japanese people pour drinks for each other instead of themselves, how to properly receive a drink, and what the different types of sake cups used for special occasions are.
With guidance from an English-speaking instructor, learn the basics of Japanese sake, traditional pouring etiquette, and the proper way to enjoy sake in social settings.
As part of the experience, sample three carefully selected Hiroshima sake varieties—including famous local brands such as Kamotsuru, Ugo no Tsuki, and Fukucho—to discover the differences in aroma, sweetness, and flavour while practising traditional etiquette.
At the end of the session, receive a Hiroshima Sake Brewery Map so you can continue exploring the region's renowned sake culture during your trip.
