🍁Autumn Sake Tasting 🍶– Mushrooms & Comté

Join us at House of Japan for an evening of Japanese sake, paired with the flavours of autumn.

The evening will begin with a welcome drink, followed by seven carefully slected Japanese sakes and liqueurs, served chilled or gently warmed. Each one will be paired with cheese, including Comté, charcuterie, and mushrooms, a taste of the season.

During the tasting, you will discover the characteristics, brewing methods, aromas and flavour profiles of each drink. You will also experience how serving temperature can change the overall expression of sake, as one of the selected sakes will be served both chilled and gently warmed for comparison.

We will also introduce the fundamentals of sake, explore how different types of glassware can influence the tasting experience, and explain the principles of sake and food pairing, including ideas for enjoying sake with everyday ingredients such as cheese and mushrooms, beyond traditional Japanese cuisine.

Whether you are new to sake or already a sake enthusiast, this small-group tasting offers a relaxed and enjoyable way to discover how temperature and season can reveal new dimensions of Japanese sake.
