Activity itinerary

Begin your experience at Wa-Modern N6 Kita-Maruyama, a cultural space and traditional craft showroom located in Sapporo, Hokkaido. Taste a single, carefully selected Japanese sake served in a variety of traditional sake cups. Discover how the same sake changes in flavour, aroma, and mouthfeel depending on the material and shape of the cup it is served in. Taste the sake using traditional craft cups gathered from across Japan, including Otaru Kiriko cut glass, magewappa bentwood cups, and pewter cups. Each cup is a handcrafted traditional craft made by skilled artisans, and each carries its own background and storey. Hear about the maker and the craftsmanship behind each cup during the experience. By tasting the same sake through glass, wood, and metal, directly experience how the texture and the way the cup feels on the lips can transform the entire tasting experience. Enjoy a sake that is selected for its smooth, fruity, and easy-to-drink character, making this experience enjoyable even for first-time sake drinkers and those who are not used to alcohol. Light snacks that pair well with sake are also included, allowing you to enjoy the flavours together.
