We hold collaborative events with various sake breweries that we have connections with through Maekake, with the cooperation of restaurants, at Shinjuku Gyoen in Tokyo several times a year.
Each time, we hold a SAKE & MAEKAKE event where you can enjoy the sake and food from each brewery and take home an original Maekake that is only available on that day.
