We are pleased to host an interactive pop-up event, “TABI suru OCHOKO × Sake of Hyogo in KITTE Osaka,” aimed at sharing the charm of Hyogo’s sake and local culture with the people of Osaka.
This event is held in collaboration with the ongoing TABI suru OCHOKO project, which is being promoted in partnership with JR West.
Through direct experiences such as tasting Hyogo’s diverse local sake, we hope to introduce the appeal of Japanese sake to those who may not have had many opportunities to try it before.
