Ukiyo Sake Dokoro is an interactive and convivial event dedicated to Japanese sake, held every 2 to 3 months in Strasbourg.

In a country with a strong wine culture, sake remains a niche market, still rarely found in bars and restaurants—not due to a lack of quality, but rather a lack of awareness and understanding.

Ukiyo Sake Dokoro is an invitation to understand, challenge preconceived ideas, explore, and fully appreciate the richness of nihonshu. You’ll learn to distinguish a Daiginjo from a Nigori, and throughout the tasting, how to choose a sake depending on the moment, serving temperature, desired style, aromatic profile, and food pairings.

The topics are approached with clarity and simplicity—without jargon, yet with depth.

Program

• Tasting of 5 premium sake selected for the occasion
• Carefully chosen pairing bites will enhance the experience, helping to explore flavor differences and aromatic interactions.

This is a gourmet and comparative experience—it is not a full meal, but a moment of tasting and sharing.

Ukiyo Sake Dokoro is a sensory escape, an opportunity to discover that sake is far more complex and fascinating than one might imagine.
