While sake often steals the spotlight, Shochu is the versatile, soulful spirit that truly defines Japanese drinking culture. Join us at Rice Vice for an exclusive look into the world of this craft spirit, featuring shochu produced entirely in-house. From the earthy richness of Tennessee Sorghum to the clean, fruity notes from wild yeast, you’ll taste the unique profiles that only small-batch, house-distilled spirits can offer.
To complete the experience, we’ve partnered with SourceWater to provide a Bento box garnished with unagi, sashimi and tempura bites designed to perfectly enhance every sip.
In this workshop, you will:
    ◦    Taste through our house-made categories to identify how different base ingredients shape the spirit’s profile.
    ◦    Go behind the scenes to learn about the distillation process used right here at Proper Sake.
    ◦    Learn the “Maewari” method and other traditional serving techniques.
    ◦    Taste two signature cocktails designed by our bartenders to highlight the nuances of our house shochu.
    ◦    Enjoy a diverse Bento provided by SourceWater, specifically curated to complement the tasting flight.
Whether you’re a spirits connoisseur or just looking to shake up your home bar routine, you’ll leave Rice Vice with a new appreciation for locally distilled Japanese spirits and the skills to mix them for your next gathering.
