This is not a typical sake tasting.
The Advanced Kyoto Insider Sake Experience explores sake that challenges conventional ideas of how sake is made.
You will taste rare and exceptional sakes brewed using ancient methods, innovative fermentation techniques that highlight the power of microorganisms, and sake made with local wood that gives each brew a distinct regional character.
Through these tastings, you will discover how dramatically flavor can change depending on philosophy, materials, and brewing choices — revealing the true depth and creative potential of sake.
While this experience also covers the fundamentals of sake production and categories, it is designed for those who want to go beyond the basics and explore a deeper, more creative side of sake.

5.00Kiyomi’s sake tasting was one of the most enjoyable, well structured experiences on my trip. From the start, she set a welcoming tone and made the whole session feel accessible, even for people who are newer to sake. What stood out most was how clearly Kiyomi explained the “why” behind what we were tasting. She walked us through key differences in polishing, aromatics, sweetness versus dryness. Each pour had context. not just the style and region, but what to look for on the palate.
Brilliant sake experience

5.00Kiyomi was our extremely knowledgable and friendly Sake sommelier. We learned so much and were able to specify our interests based on the information. I would recommend this to anyone, including people without prior interest in Sake.
Excellent experience, learned so much about sake!!

5.00This was a great experience in Kyoto! Kotaro is excellent and very knowledgeable on sake (he's a sommelier) and we were fascinated to learn so much and how complex the whole sake making process is and so many styles that exist. He goes into lots of detail but it's just the right amount to leave informed but entertained as you get to try 10 different types of sake. Highly recommend the experience, it's a small group so it's very personal and lots of fun!! You will leave with a new appreciation of the sake world and sample some great sake too!
Very pleasantly surprised by a great educational and fun tasting event

5.00The event was planned and booked in the expectation of a rather touristic, short event. However we were very positively surprised by a great event in which we learned more then we ever dreamed of in a very cosy setting and had excellent and rare sakes we could taste. The host presented enthusiastically and with drive and experience. She really was knowledgeable on the topic! I learned a lot and had great fun and had some real excellent sake in a great variety. When I do get back, I'll do it again
A fantastic educational and sake tasting experience, greatly exceeding our expectations and enriched our understanding .

5.00This sake tasting experience was exceptional in my opinion. Kiyomi, our sake, sommelier, was extremely knowledgable and experienced. She provided a great presentation and overall experience, with not just a deep understanding of sake and the brewing techniques, but also fantastic and unique sake varieties to taste. I thought it was a fantastic experience!.
Amazing, Thoughtful Experience!

5.00We have done both the intro tour and the advanced tour, and we learned so much! The sommeliers are so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Kotaro was really lovely and answered all our questions. Loved having the advanced tasting build on what we learned last time. Also, the tasting was set up extremely thoughtfully, so that we could easily taste the difference in styles and process. A one-of-a-kind experience and definitely worth the trip.
