WSET Webinar Series: All About Yamadanishiki

Sake Samurai and Educator Natsuki Kikuya takes a close look at Yamadanishiki, "the king of sake rice" in her next sake webinar.

Wednesday 24 June | 6pm-7pm BST

With a history spanning over 2,000 years, now is a really exciting time to be discovering sake. WSET School London Sake Educator and Sake Samurai Natsuki Kikuya has been running a series of fascinating sake webinars for us since the start of lockdown in the UK, and her next one focuses on a particularly important rice variety. 

Today there are over 120 different sake rice varieties grown all around Japan, but you cannot start learning about them without mentioning Yamadanishiki, known as "the king of sake rice". In this webinar, Natsuki will explore the history and stories behind the popularity of Yamadanishiki. She'll also discuss how microclimate and regionality factors affect the quality of rice itself in Hyogo Prefecture and other areas of Japan.
