A One-Night Sake Pairing at Hanaroku

Edible rice, rather than rice grown for sake brewing, is the detail that sets this pairing apart! Shirasugi Shuzo, from Kyotango, makes sake that brings out the flavor of that table rice, then joins Hanaroku for a makers’ dinner at Hotel Kanra Kyoto 👀

The other half of the experience is Hanaroku’s creative teppanyaki. What might you notice when sake built around the taste of everyday rice meets dishes cooked on the teppan? Follow the pairing from one side to the other, and see how the flavors meet in each course 🤭

This is a one-night event, so there’s just one occasion to catch the collaboration. If you can choose only one part to focus on, make it the pairing itself; that’s where the brewery and restaurant’s ideas come together 👌

The dinner takes place at Hanaroku, the teppanyaki restaurant at Hotel Kanra Kyoto. Since the event happens on a single night, check its practical details before setting out, so you can plan your meal around the occasion 🙂

Sake made with edible rice and creative teppanyaki: which side of the pairing are you most curious about first? Start with that in mind, then give the other its turn at the table ☺️
