New Year Sake Tasting Event & Holiday Opening Hours
As the year draws to a close, we approach the festive season with great anticipation.
At our boutique, we remain steadfast in welcoming you throughout the New Year period, without lowering our curtains even for a moment.
This New Year season, Imaimi will remain open and host a special sake-tasting event on January 1st and 2nd at our store.
In Japan, sake offered to the gods is known as omiki, and it is often shared with visitors during New Year’s shrine visits. This tradition symbolizes purification for a fresh start, gratitude to the gods, and receiving their blessings.
At Imaimi, we are delighted to present the Junmai Daiginjo 2025 Mi HEAVY ROTATION (Zodiac Bottle) from Tatenokawa Sake Brewery, one of Japan’s premier sake producers, as part of this special occasion.
With a harmonious balance of the acidity and the rice’s natural sweetness, this sake offers a bright and refreshing taste, perfect for celebrating the New Year.
A limited quantity of 24 bottles will also be available for purchase at our store. We invite you to share this auspicious sake, believed to bring good fortune, with your family and loved ones.
Reflect on the year that has passed and look forward to the promise of the one to come. Let us offer a bottle befitting this moment of renewal.
From celebratory Champagnes to accompany the grandeur of the occasion, to fine whiskies to savour through the quiet hours of the night, we present a curated collection of exceptional bottles for your enjoyment.
