This experience was amazing! Kahoku was so knowledgable about sake. The food she made was INCREDIBLE. She is so talented. I highly recommend this experience. She is so kind and friendly, it was so much fun spending time with her.
Thank you so much for joining! I was also happy to have fun teaching about sake. I’m glad you enjoyed the sake and food pairing too ☺ I hope it becomes a memorable experience in Kyoto!
First time Sake tasting. Left loving sake. The owner gives the lesson and her love and knowledge for sake makes the experience amazing. 10/10 recommend!
Thanks for joining! I love sake, so I'm really happy to be able to share it with everyone ☺ I hope it becomes a memorable experience in Kyoto!

We had a lovely time tasting 5 excellent sakes (paired perfectly with delicious snacks!), and learning all about the production of sake. The host was so friendly, thank you!
Thank you very much for your participation! I am very happy that you were able to enjoy the differences in the taste of sake through sake tasting and pairing with food! I also really love talking, so it was enjoyable to spend such a wonderful time together! I would be happy if this became a memory of Kyoto🌟
We had a lovely time tasting five different sake. The session was relaxed and fun, and we were the only people there! This is a good option for beginners who are looking for a basic introduction to sake, as well as those who want a relaxed sake tasting in the centre of Kyoto and who do not want to dedicate half a day travelling to one of the larger or more time consuming tasting sessions at breweries in the suburbs.
Thank you very much for your participation. Our experience is designed so that even first-time visitors in central Kyoto can easily learn about the charm and qualities of sake. We hope that the experience of enjoying delicious sake while having fun conversations will become one of your memorable moments from your trip to Japan!
My husband and I had an incredible time during this experience! Such a lovely way to learn about how sake is made, the different types, and compare multiple types! It was paired with delicious snacks that complimented each sake perfectly! Would highly recommend this experience with the sweetest guide/shop!!!
Thank you very much for participating in the sake course! I am really glad that you were able to enjoy various types of sake along with homemade foods that pair well with each one! I will do my best to convey to everyone the goodness of the sake that I love!
A nice introduction in making and tasting sake with a very friendly host. Not sparing any effort to make it a wonderful experience.
Thank you very much for participating! My English is still far from perfect, but I will do my best to make this a memorable experience in Kyoto for everyone!
Here you can experience sake in Kyoto. In particular, can you tell me about pairing with sake and how to make sake? Also, I think it will be a good experience because you can feel free to go by yourself!
ご参加いただきありがとうございます。京都の中心部で日本酒のテイスティングとペアリングができる場所として良い体験をしていただけてすごく嬉しいです！日本酒も時期によって変えていこうと思っておりますので、またのご参加心よりお待ち致しております。
Our sake tasting host Kahoko was so friendly and right away my group knew this was going to be great experience because of how passionate she is about Sake. First time visiting Kyoto with my 5 friends and we booked this Sake tasting last minute. When we met Kahoko she was able to have us seated with her curated personal list of sakes for us to try. We took notes, laughed, learned about Kyoto, and the atmosphere of the bar was very inviting. The tasting experience was soooo fun and I would recommend Kahoko to anyone that wants to learn about sake for the first time.
Thank you for participating in the sake course! I hope to share the appeal of Japanese sake while having enjoyable conversations with all of you ✨ Thank you for spending a fun time together ☺ I would be really happy if this could become a memorable experience of your trip!!
