Wise Up at Moga’s Sake Masterclass

Since Australia is now its second largest importer, it's high time we learned a thing or two about the brewing and history of the fermented rice spirit known as sake. Cue Moga's Sake Masterclass.

Since 1902, Fukui's (Japan) Ippongi Sake Brewery has been renowned for its pure, high-quality dry sake and will be bringing us a rare opportunity: to meet third generation Sake Master Kakutaro Kubo. Kubo will be headed to Paddington's Moga Izayaka for the classes that give sake bluffers a clue in.

For $85, participants will get an introduction to the art of brewing, an education on sake's history and an appreciation of its role in tradition. You'll also score a six-course dinner from the restaurant's head chef Satoshi-san, paired with matching sakes and house made umeshu (plum liqueur). It all happens from 6.45pm on Friday, November 8, so call (07) 3367 2808 for bookings.
