Kimoto + Yamahai Tasting ✹ 29.08.25
This type of sake is a source of infinite fascination. Kimoto and Yamahai are older brewing methods that only make up about 1% of all sake produced in Japan today. It is a delicious and flavorful sake that contains a higher level of acidity than conventionally brewed sake, typically more savory, full-bodied and umami rich. This type of sake is the foundation of our sake passion and we love talking about it with you!. We will taste a variation of Kimoto / Yamahai together and cover the brewing technique, historical context etc.
- Presentation and serving of at least 4 different Kimoto/Yamahai sake
- Duration approx. 90min
The tasting is in the company of Jakob Emdal, founder of Manaka and sake sommelier, who has worked professionally with sake in Copenhagen since 2016. Primarily with direct import from Japan's leading sake breweries, as well as supplying sake to Copenhagen's restaurant scene.
Manaka is based in Jægersborggade in Nørrebro.
