Join me for an unforgettable All You Can Drink Japanese Wine Party at the stunning Ikeda-Tokachi Wine Castle in Hokkaido, Japan. This adventure is not just about the wine; it’s about the people and the culture in one of Japan’s most renowned wine-producing regions.
In this video, you’ll see me sharing a toast with Aki, a professional winemaker, against the backdrop of an exquisite buffet. But the humorous highlight of the event was when Mayumi, a local radio host from Sapporo with a brilliant sense of humor, took over the camera! While I was busy filling my plate, she gave viewers an impromptu and humorous tour of the wine selection, adding a unique twist to the experience.
Even the town’s mayor made an appearance, showcasing the warmth and friendliness of Tokachi by personally topping up my wine glass. It was a gesture of respect and hospitality that truly touched me.
The evening didn’t end there! Follow me to the after-party at a Karaoke Bar, where the wine continued to flow freely.
