Tokyo, virtual sake tasting ā 1 hour. Forget BYOBābringing your own sake (BYOS) is the new norm. And whatever you bring, Online Experience host Yuma (@ninjafoodtours) will gladly tell you all about it. āI try to share as many tips as possible,ā he says. āI want to preserve the sake drinking culture and industry by sharing it.ā
During āIzakaya & Sake Culture with a Sommelier,ā youāll be transported into Yumaās 23-seater bar in the vibrant Shinjuku district to learn sakeās history (spit was once an important ingredient), gain insight on its labor intensive process (which is closer to beer than wine), and beef up your food-pairing prowess. Itās the perfect way to celebrate Omisoka (be sure to break out the Otoso for New Yearās in Japan), or any excuse to sip together, really.
Warm up your winter together with a (virtual) trip to Tokyo.
