Map of Japantown, San Jose Walk - Japantown Business Association & Japantown Cultural Society, 195 East Taylor Street

The Sake Walk was created beyond the idea of sampling great sake, but rather to provide an outlet for the community to come together to explore the Japantown San Jose neighborhoods and small businesses, which help keep the Bay Area great.

This is a great opportunity to broaden your knowledge how sake is made, the history, the Japanese culture, or how polishing the rice makes a difference in the flavor. What do you smell? What do you taste?

Sake Walk will have 3 locations participating and featuring 30 sakes & baijius with unlimited tastings with a souvenir glass.

Tickets
• Tickets can be purchased at sakewalk.com
• General Admission Tickets are for 3 hours of tasting from 2pm - 5pm.
• General Admission $55
• Week of event (if event is not sold out) - General Admission $75
