A lovely time spent with the guide and other tasters!
This was awesome. Anh was fantastic. She took her time to answer all our questions and gave us great explanations. We learned so much and had so much fun. We were torn between this and the class with the Sommelier, but I’m glad we chose this one. I think this is the right class for anyone who doesn’t already have much knowledge about sake. Plenty to drink included as well!!! Loved it all.
Super experience, the guide spoke very good English and explained how sake is traditionally made, what varieties exist, and where the differences lie. The varieties that could be tasted were very different, and there was something for everyone. In the end, we also bought 4 bottles; next time, we will book the sommelier tour :)
Anh is the girl who attended us and she is a dear! They have many types of sacks and the experience of proving the sake you choose is very cool! I thought it was worth the experience!
Great experience and Anh was mto good tb
Mega fun experience with good English speaking guide. The tasting began with a clear, comprehensive but concise explanation of the sake making process and the differences in sake. There was plenty of room for questions and after the explanation were given enough coins to try a diverse selection of sake. Definitely a fun and accessible getaway when you visit Tokyo. The business is small and therefore quiet with enough personal attention.
Really nice experience with really nice people !
Wasake was an amazing experience! We did the guided tasting with 11 people, and the owner and guide were so accommodating. From answering our questions about sake brewing to what their favorite ramen was in the area - they were the best hosts. Definitely consider Wasake for your sake tasting experience!
Amazing experience, fantastic explanation from the staff, would recommend to everyone!
Excellent experience! Our guide gave us such a thorough overview of the process and varieties of sake. I now understand sake on a much deeper level and feel more confident. This was worth every penny!!
