For more than 2,000 years, saké has been deeply intertwined with the history and culture of Japan. Crafted through a meticulous brewing process, saké was used during religious or formal ceremonies but has become an integral part of weddings, celebrations, and everyday life.

As the popularity of saké outside of Japan has boomed in recent years, exports to the U.S. doubled between 2012 and 2022. With this increasing interest comes new opportunities to explore the drink's various varieties, production techniques, and uses.

Join Asia Society Texas, the U.S.–Japan Council, Genji Saké, and Mutual Trading to celebrate to celebrate the diverse world of Japanese saké. At this evening tasting event, sample a dozen different varieties while industry experts share the brewing techniques and tasting notes. Appetizers from local restaurants and vendors will be served.

Guests must be ages 21 and up and will be required to show valid I.D. upon entry.

Tickets are available for $65.00 for Asia Society members and $85.00 for non-members. Click the button below to learn more and purchase.
