Masterclass: It Doesn’t Always Have to Be Champagne
Sparkling Sake – Effervescent, Surprising, Versatile – A collaboration with Ueno
10 October 2026 | 16:00–18:00 | SHIKI Sakethek Vienna
Join us on 10 October 2026 for a special Sake Masterclass at SHIKI Sakethek Vienna. Sake Sommelier Julia Lutter will present an exciting selection of Sparkling Sake during this masterclass.
These sparkling sakes are surprising and demonstrate just how versatile Sparkling Sake can be. Whether enjoyed as an elegant aperitif, a versatile accompaniment to food, or simply on its own – Sparkling Sake delights with its freshness, delicate bubbles, and exceptional aromas.
As part of this exclusive tasting, our guests will enjoy five different premium sakes. Each sake will be explained in detail – from the varieties of rice used and polishing ratios to its aromas, style, and ideal food pairings.
- FUKUJU – Awasaki Sparkling
A delicate, elegant Sparkling Junmai with fine bubbles. Light, refreshing, and gently sweet, with a soft and harmonious character.
NINKI – Sparkling J-Ginjo
A fruity Junmai Ginjo with fine bubbles and a slight cloudiness. Aromas of apple and pineapple combine with creamy nuances and lively acidity.
SHICHIKEN – Sparkling Dry
An elegant, dry Sparkling Sake with aromas of green melon and white pear. Fine bubbles and fresh acidity lead to a creamy, slightly nutty finish.
SHICHIKEN – Alain Ducasse
A refined Sparkling Sake with floral and fruity notes of wild strawberry and white cherry. Silky and lively, with fine acidity, subtle sweetness, and elegant complexity.
SHICHIKEN – Sparkling Hakushu
A complex Sparkling Sake with delicate notes of citrus fruits, peach, brioche, and vanilla. Lively acidity, elegant bubbles, and subtle barrel notes create a long and refined finish.
Look forward to an enjoyable yet informative afternoon filled with Japanese sake culture in an intimate and personal atmosphere.
