Overview

Japan might be most famous for its sake, but the country’s varied terrain creates excellent conditions for growing grapes. This small-group wine-tasting experience showcases Japan’s native grape varieties and lets you try lesser-known Japanese wines that are rarely exported, for a unique culinary experience. Upgrade to the standard experience to include a Japanese food pairing, or the premium experience, which also includes a handcrafted Japanese wine glass as a souvenir.

Each glass is carefully chosen to highlight regional terroirs
A small group promises personalized attention
Choose from three options to fit your budget: casual, standard, or premium
Avoid a language barrier when ordering—your guide selects the wine for you

Hosts are very friendly, and very knowledgeable. It was a very fun time. And the wines were very good. Bought 2 bottles to bring home. Highly recommend.

Hidden Gem of a Tasting – Ask for Esther!

David_P, Apr 2026

We thoroughly enjoyed this guided wine journey. It’s a very intimate setting that allows for a deep dive into Japanese terroir and boutique producers. Esther’s expertise was evident from the start; she explained the nuances of each pour with great detail and made the history of Japanese viticulture come alive. The wines themselves were excellent and offered a unique perspective on the local palate. It’s a professional, well-paced experience that we would encourage any wine lover to book while in Tokyo.
