GASHUE

If you're planning to try sake tasting in Tokyo, there's no better place to immerse yourself than Premium Sake Pub Gashue in Ueno. We opted for the sake flight paired with food, and it turned into an incredibly rich and memorable experience. The owner personally guided us through the tasting, shari...ng a deep wealth of knowledge about sake. He introduced us to a wide range of styles—from traditional to non-traditional, including aged varieties—and explained how temperature can dramatically change the flavor and texture. We learned how to appreciate the subtle combinations of aromas and mouthfeel that make each sake unique. What began as a tasting flight quickly expanded into an exploration of 11 different types of sake. The 90 minutes flew by, and we left not only delighted by the flavors but also with a newfound appreciation for sake’s complexity and versatility. If you're in Tokyo, don’t miss this hidden gem. Gashue isn’t just a place to taste sake—it’s a place to truly understand and fall in love with it. An unforgettable experience.

Good food and really nice sake. I did a tasting and they made it quite the happening. The staff was very hospitable. I would recommend going here if you want to dive into the world of sake.

It was so fun and informative! We got a whole lecture on the different types of sake. I was expecting it to be more like a tasting flight at a brewery, where they just hand you the drinks, but it was so much more. We loved it! And, the food was great. Potato salad as the highlight! The staff w...ere warm and welcoming. Loved it!
