Fukushima prefecture wants to show its appreciation for its supporters by offering sake tastings of its 158 brands from its 54 breweries, live entertainment, and Fukushima foods in a festival setting.
Two months ago the results of the 2016 “Annual Japan Sake Awards” were announced. 30 Fukushima brands won awards, 22 of which were selected for Gold Prizes. For 5 consecutive years, Fukushima prefecture has been ranked number one in Japan for the number of Gold Prizes. Visitors can taste these sake as well as a complete range of Fukushima sake at the event.
It all takes place at the West Exit Square of Shinbashi Station. Entry is free, but sake and food is pay as you go. Food and drink tickets are 5 for 1,000 yen. Or they can be bought in advance at Midette, the Fukushima antenna shop in Nihonbashi at 6 for 1,000 yen.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
