Celebrate the last day of National Sake Week in style with a very special hanami (cherry blossom viewing) themed sake pairing event!
In this workshop Sarah will introduce you to the fascinating world of wagashi and explain how the varied flavours and textures of these charmingly seasonal sweets can pair beautifully with a wide variety of sake, creating flavour combinations not possible with traditional western style desserts. Wagashi and sake pairing is growing in popularity within Japan, so come and enjoy this rare chance to enjoy the two together here in London!
You will taste four different wagashi paired with five different sake, four selected from Japanese sake breweries alongside one of KANPAI’s very own British sake.
Join us at Kanpai Sake Brewery for a Sake Cocktail Party on Thursday, 18th, April featuring special guest bartender Samuel Boulton, author of "The Art of Mixing Koji Cocktails." Boulton will be showcasing three exceptional Sake cocktails, two of which are straight from his renowned book, alongside a brand new cocktail designed exclusively in collaboration with Kanpai Sake Brewery.
One of the cocktails gracing the menu for the evening will be the SUMO cocktail, featuring Kanpai Aged Sake, Imo shochu, and chocolate cookies. Boulton describes this creation as his interpretation of harmonising Japanese and Western cultures. The cocktail has a Koshu sake base, lending a rich miso-like Umami backbone, complemented by the sweet potato notes of Imozake (a sweet potato shochu). These flavours intertwine with the chocolate cookie syrup, creating a symphony of taste reminiscent of a delectable biscuit.
It’s free to attend but we recommend you book a table at: https://kanpai.london/visit
