Over 250 brands from more than 60 breweries from all over Japan, including Niigata and Hiroshima Prefectures, will be assembled! The diverse lineup includes sake treasures not for sale, long-aged sake, craft brewed sake, and more! With an original sake cup in one hand and a sake ticket in the other, visitors can sip on their favorite brands. This year, Islander Sake Brewery, a Hawaiian brewery, will be participating in the event. There will also be a booth in collaboration with "Nihon Sake ni Shishu", a members-only service that sells only freshly squeezed original Japanese sake. The world of sake is still expanding.
The "Premium & Heated Sake Bar" is a bar where you can try super-premium and aged sake from sake breweries for as little as one glass. Some of the premium sakes can cost as much as 300,000 yen for a 4-gou (720 ml) bottle, but at this bar, you can try them for a flat rate of 2,000 yen per glass! Hot sake will also be served by hot sake DJ Tsuketaro, who also performs at the stage event.
*The amount we can offer is limited. Please forgive us if we sell out.
Fifteen popular Kyoto restaurants will appear! Ate (Japanese-style dishes) that go perfectly with sake will also be served, so you can enjoy the marriage of sake and the food. (*Special fee required)

There will also be stage events to make sake more enjoyable, such as the appeal of craft brewed sake and aged old sake, which have recently been the focus of attention, the NFT mechanism to develop sake into a "drinkable asset," and "traditional sake brewing," which is accelerating toward registration as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage.
Sake World Summit in KYOTO" is a simple and fun event to drink, but it is also a showcase for the products sold at "Sake World NFT" and an event to find your own "sake recommendation" while actually drinking and interacting with the sake breweries. It is also an event where you can actually drink and interact with the sake breweries to find your own "sake guess. Once you have found your "sake recommendation," you can use NFT to create your own original aged sake on the spot.
The "Subway & City Bus Ride for 200yen Sake Coupon Present Campaign" will also be held. Those who show a subway or bus ticket or a subway one-day pass at the "Head Office" will receive a 200 yen sake coupon for use at the event! (Limited to one time per person)
To commemorate the Sake World Summit in KYOTO, a limited-edition Japanese sake label with a design of "Taishin Rei", a subway and city bus character who supports sake lovers, will be on sale.
Limited to 100 bottles "Taishin Rei x Sake World Summit" 300ml 3,300 yen
Sake World NFT, a marketplace that sells exchange tickets for Japanese sake in the form of NFT, is available for purchase.
Sake is not only delicious when it is new, but as documents from the Edo period show, sake also has a valuable taste that expands even after aging, and the world is now beginning to realize this. Various efforts are being made throughout Japan to try new rice and yeast, organic and natural approaches, aging in barrels, assemblage, etc., and even after the sake brewing process was almost completed in the Edo period, it is still under development.
At the same time, the sake industry is now entering a new phase, with the spread of craft brews that include a variety of secondary ingredients such as herbs and fruits. The fusion of sake, a traditional culture and industry that Japan is proud of, and NFT's technology is truly interesting. I am also excited about the challenge of "turning sake into drinkable assets. In the world of wine, there is already a long history of the formation of the asset aspect, and I am also looking forward to the development of the SAKE economic zone through the development of a secondary distribution market.
Fun to drink, fun to age, and fun to hold. We still have a long way to go in our efforts to maximize the value of sake, but we hope you will bear with us.
