Adorable Creatures of Japanese Sake Labels
Join us on Thursday 7th May for a guided tasting exploring the animals, symbolism and design behind some of our favourite sake labels. The line-up moves through a broad range of styles, from lively sparkling sake and elegant junmai to rich kimoto and creamy yogurushu. Can’t make the event? The full range tasted on the night is available to shop below, so you can explore the line-up at home.
