Tour Review

Who loves our tour?

  • Nick Mazur

    Great introduction to sake

    I'm sure like most people we arrived with very little knowledge of sake. Shingo very quickly made us feel relaxed and welcome. His knowledge of the history and production of sake was very impressive. After an hour and a half of light hearted but informative discussion and tasting of 6 very different sakes we left feeling that not only had we learnt a lot about sake but we had experienced a very enjoyable evening. Many thanks Shingo.
