Review for: 1.5-Hour Sake Tasting Experience

this was so much fun and very educational. We learned the history of sake and the different types of rice and different types of wine. I’ve had sake before many times but never realized there were so many different types. The 7types of sake we tasted were great and the food pairings were excellent and enhanced the flavor. 90 minutes was the perfect length of time for this session. I highly recommend to others you won’t be disappointed.

Thoroughly fun experience. Rieko was very knowledgeable and explain the different sakes very well. Highly recommend if it Kyoto and want the quickie course on the differences in types of sake. You leave with the presentation so you can reference it later! Sample 7 kinds of sake and there were also a couple of bonus ones at the end since group showed so much interest in learning.

This was a great experience & we learnt so much about the way sake is made & the different tastes. Our sake somellier was very informative & spoke great English. Definitely recommend this experience even if you don’t have a great love for the taste of sake, you’ll taste multiple different types and it’s an overall fun time.

Our guide Shogo explained us the history of Sake, its different types and guide us during food pairing. This is a great experience for those who want to learn more about sake and understand with which type of food each sake goes well. You can also understand which sake you like the most.

Our guide was super knowledgeable and answered all our questions. You get to try a wide variety of sakes and then get to pair them with food. NOTE - unlike other booking with Klook you will not receive a voucher.
