These are the sake made for warm evenings, terraces, and seafood on the table.In this edition, we taste our way through the world of summer sake: from a crisp, seafood-friendly sparkling, to low-alcohol and lightly textured styles, to a citrus sake built for the sun—and we close by setting them beside a fresh Japanese white wine.Summer Sake Lineup? Seafood Sparkling — Imada Shuzō A bright, sea-inspired sparkling sake made to lift oysters, shellfish, and everything from the water.? Fukuchō "Bon Time" Style:B — Imada Shuzō A gentle, low-alcohol (12%) junmai—easy and refreshing, yet still full of character.? Mutsu Hassen Isaribi Tokubetsu Junmai — Hachinohe Shuzō "Isaribi" means the fishing-boat lights at sea. Crisp and clean, a natural partner for summer food.? Senkin Nature — Senkin Barrel-fermented, minimally polished natural sake—the bottle that bridges straight into the world of natural wine.? Ice Breaker — Kinoshita Shuzō A junmai ginjō built to be poured over ice. Light, fruity, and made for a warm afternoon.? Yoigokochi Yuzu — Ōta Shuzō An intensely refreshing yuzu sake, over 25% real yuzu juice. Serve cool or over ice.? Koshu, Hishiyama Vineyard 2022 — Grace Wine A fresh Japanese white wine from Yamanashi, set alongside the sake for a side-by-side wine comparison.Please note: the final sake lineup may change depending on bottle availability and tasting condition, but the structure and theme of the workshop will remain the same.Your Evening Includes?
