Great Sake tasting tour.

Kaz was very knowledgeable. We went earlier in the day so the bars were not open yet but Kaz took us to a great tasting room as well as a really good sushi place for lunch. My partner and I would highly recommend Kaz.

Operator response

I really am impressed by the time with you in our day during your trip to JAPAN and appreciate much for your high evaluation. Hopefully limited hours in TOKYO with JAPANESE SAKE becomes unforgettable memory. I also enjoyed the conversation & drinking SAKE with you as well on the way! Thank you from KAZ
