Advanced Sake Sommelier Course

Advanced Sake Sommelier course is a programme which takes place in Japan.

We will be offering you a unique insider’s view of Japan by visiting carefully handpicked Sake breweries in stunning suburban villages and beautiful, traditional cities. You will be able to see, touch and feel authentic Sake making processes under the guidance of Toji (Sake master).

This educational course will allow you to learn about the magnificent drink in depth and discover places that may not be in your ordinary guidebook. Enjoy the incredible country as a Sake professional and tourist at the same time – this tour promises to bring you an once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Our group is limited to a small number of people in order to ensure an intimate and interactive setting.

Highlights:

- Unique first-hand experience of Sake making with Toji
- Visits to carefully-selected breweries in various parts of Japan
- Special lectures by Japanese Sake experts
- Special Sake evenings with brewers and specialists

The standard route is to take the Certified Sake Sommelier course to obtain thorough knowledge of Sake then take the Advanced Sake Sommelier course. However, SSA strongly believes in flexible ways of learning, as every person is unique and different.
We therefore welcome students to take the Advanced Sake Sommelier course first to witness how Sake is made in Japan and engage in the authentic cultures first, then further expand their knowledge and experience by attending the Certified Sake Sommelier course to complete the whole process of becoming a Sake Sommelier!
