Event Details
Discover the unexpected harmony between Japanese sake and Western cheese in this expert-led sake and cheese pairing workshop, presented by the Sake Association of British Columbia (SABC) as part of the Bite of Burnaby Food Festival.
Guided by Certified Sake Sommelier Toshi Uehara of Sakegami, this educational tasting demystifies the world of sake while exploring how its flavour profiles complement a curated selection of cheeses. Guests will enjoy a guided flight of premium Japanese sakes, thoughtfully paired to highlight balance, texture, and depth—bringing out the best in both sake and cheese.
Designed for both beginners and enthusiasts, this workshop offers an approachable introduction to sake culture. No prior sake knowledge is required—just curiosity and an appreciation for flavour.
This is a relaxed yet informative tasting experience that blends cultural insight with sensory discovery.
