Overview

Join a local New Yorker and sake enthusiast on a tour of the best sake bars in the East Village! At each of the bars, you'll get to sip on different types of sake as you learn about the uniqueness, brewing process, and history of this underrated and misunderstood alcohol.

You'll try about 2 drinks at each of the 3 bars that we visit. The drinks will vary at each bar, but you'll get to try the best bottles of sake that the bars have to offer. After experiencing this tour you'll be able to say which type of sake you enjoy, and you'll have the experience and knowledge to order sake on your own!

Your tour will provide you with a crash course on everything you need to know about sake, as well as give you the confidence to go out and buy your first bottle of sake. Whether you've never had a sip of sake in your life or you want to better understand the beverage you've already enjoyed, then this is the experience for you!

What's Included

  • Alcoholic Beverages We'll try a different type of sake at each bar!
  • Snacks Unfortunately due to large group sizes, tight schedules, and differing nutritional needs, we are unable to provide food (snacks, dinner, drunchies) on the tour.
  • Bottled water Make sure to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated as we walk around!
