Which one will you choose?
Seasonal. Bespoke. Intimate.
It's the sacred season of shinmai—newly harvested rice, pristine and fragrant. We’ll honor this humble grain with a musubi masterclass, sear Spanish mackerel over rice straw flame, and journey to Itoshima to explore the craft of brewing, Japan’s most essential seasoning, soy.
