What you'll do

Izakaya and sake are key parts of Japanese food and drink culture. I have been involved in sake-making and running my own my izakaya restaurant in the last 3 years, and I just love to share my passion with people. I also started a food tour company, @ninjafoodtours which ranked the top 10 on Tripadvisor in Japan. We will virtually experience the Japanese culture of Izakaya gastropub and sake. I will start off the experience with a short tour of my izakaya restaurant in Tokyo and we will talk about the Japanese izakaya culture and sake such as: - What we drink in Izakaya restaurants - Sake 101 (how it is made, terminologies, classifications) - Ways to enjoy sake better and sake & food pairings If you have sake or any drink at home to bring to this experience, that would be great! This is a great way to interact with other guests and perfect for a private/team building/family event.

Yuma

I’m a certified sake sommelier and a restaurant owner in Tokyo. I also founded Ninja Food Tours, a gourmet food tour company featured by multiple media (e.g. CNN). In addition to my businesses, I give sake-related training at corporate events and host events to bring awareness of sake. While I have a deep appreciation of traditional sake culture, I also love to experiment with new things with sake.

What to bring
