What to expect
Never tried sake, or want to know more about it? This experience is for you. No knowledge needed. Step into our quiet space in Kyoto’s Kawaramachi and discover a sake that suits you.
Introduction: Your guide explains sake in simple English. Made from only rice and water, it offers a surprising range of flavors. Tasting 8 sakes: Compare them one by one and notice which ones you like. Creating your sake: Combine your favorites to make a flavor that is yours. Your guide will help at each step. Naming: Give your creation its own name. Take it home: Your sake is bottled as a memory of Kyoto or a gift for someone special.
We believe sake will surprise you here.
A toast to a sake that didn’t exist until today.
That first sip when you wonder, “Is this really sake?”
Eight bottles, eight personalities. Which one is yours?
Trust your senses. There are no wrong answers here.
The moment a name turns your sake into your story.
Conversations with our staff become part of your Kyoto story.
A Kyoto memory you can open again at home.
Just off the busy streets, a quiet doorway awaits.
Good to know
- Just steps from Kiyomizudera and Nishiki Market, making it perfect for a quick stop between sightseeing spots
- Guests under 20 cannot taste or participate in the experience, so please keep this in mind if you're traveling with family
- Weekend afternoons tend to be the busiest, while weekdays and mornings offer a more relaxed experience
- No need to bring anything—just come as you are
- Loved your sake? You can purchase a bottle to take home. Purchases of ¥5,500 (tax included) or more are eligible for tax-free shopping
- Great for rainy days or hot summer afternoons, as the entire experience takes place indoors
