Planning a trip to Japan? Sake is everywhere - and knowing how to navigate it will transform your travel experience! Join us at the Sake Studies Center at Brooklyn Kura in NYC for an immersive sake class designed specifically for sake-loving travelers headed to Japan. We'll give you the knowledge, vocabulary, and confidence to order sake like a local, visit breweries off the beaten path, and discover the styles you love most.

Set inside our state-of-the-art NYC sake brewery, this is a uniquely hands-on, fun and interactive learning experience. You'll tour the brewery, taste sake fresh from the press, and work your way through a guided flight of 5 premium sakes — including selections straight from Japan. Our Sake 101 presentation will cover everything you need to know, and you'll leave with practical tools you'll need to understand and order sake the moment you land in Tokyo. We'll also walk you through the do's and don'ts of sake etiquette — from how to pour for your table-mates to the customs and rituals that show respect and make the best impression wherever in Japan your travels may take you.

What's included:

  • Insider tips on how to find and visit sake breweries in Japan
  • A vocabulary cheat sheet so you can confidently order the sake that suits you perfectly
  • Sake etiquette and cultural customs to help you drink with confidence and respect
  • Sake 101 presentation covering all the sake basics you need to know
  • Guided tasting of 5 premium sakes, including selections from Japan
  • Guided tour through our NYC sake brewery
  • Sake 101 Handouts to take with you on your travels
  • Light nibbles to pair with your sakes


Come taste, learn, and get ready for the sake adventure of a lifetime!
