Gourmet Tours of Saké in Montreal: featuring our favourite Japanese addresses
Gourmet Tours of Saké in Montreal – The TASTET x Montréal en Lumière Gourmet Tours are back, and just in time for the impending holiday season! With the help of your feedback from 2019, the TASTET team has prepared six new and exciting themes for this year’s tours. This time around, you are invited to discover the worlds of saké, “real wine”, hidden bars, Greek cuisine, Chinese cuisine, and Italian cuisine in Montreal.
For our Gourmet Tours of Saké in Montreal, we are fortunate enough to be accompanied by the wonderful Japanese culinary critic and saké sommelier specialist, Kuniko Fujita, otherwise known as “Madame Saké au Québec“. If you don’t know already, saké is a traditional Japanese alcohol made from fermented rice, and is often considered the Japanese equivalent of wine. Kuniko will accompany you to three carefully selected Japanese establishments, where you will get to discover excellent sakés and enjoy small Japanese appetizers, all while listening to the expert discuss the cultural history of saké in Japan. Is it meant to be enjoyed hot or cold? How is it manufactured? What does a good saké consist of? Kuniko will be there to answer all of your questions. Furthermore, you will be able to learn about the history and vision of each address on the tour and engage with their staff.
Here’s everything you need to know.
