Japanese Featured Sake and Wine Products Exhibition: Discovering Yamanashi’s Finest Vintages

The Japanese Featured Sake and Wine Products Exhibition stands as an influential cultural and trade event bringing the rich alcoholic beverage traditions of Japan directly to Vietnam. Hosted in Ho Chi Minh City, this targeted exhibition showcases artisanal Japanese sake alongside world-class regional wines from Yamanashi Prefecture—the heartland of Japanese viticulture.

For local sommeliers, F&B buyers, and beverage enthusiasts, the event offers a unique platform to explore the craft, terroir, and delicate flavor profiles defining Japanese alcoholic beverages.

Event Overview: Japanese Featured Sake & Wine Exhibition

Held at 150 Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street, Ward 6, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, the exhibition serves as a official trade bridge connecting Japanese craft producers with Vietnamese distributors.

The event highlights the natural purity and agricultural excellence of Yamanashi, a region situated at the base of Mount Fuji. Guests are treated to an exclusive journey featuring seasonal Akiagari (autumn-matured sake), premium Daiginjo sakes, and refined regional wines.

Organized by Yamanashi Tourism & Products Promotion Committee

The event was officially organized by the Yamanashi Tourism and Products Promotion Committee, under the leadership of Chairman SHINDO Nakaba, and supported by the Consul-General of Japan in Ho Chi Minh City, Mr. ONO Masuo.

Distinguishing Features of Yamanashi Sake and Wine Culture

Yamanashi Prefecture is globally celebrated as the birthplace of Japanese winemaking and a sanctuary for pristine sake brewing, supported by pure natural spring water from Mount Yatsugatake.

1. Iconic Koshu Wine & Regional Sake Brewing

• Koshu Wine: Crafted from the indigenous Koshu grape variety grown around Mt. Fuji, Yamanashi white wines offer a delicate, crisp acidity with subtle citrus notes, perfectly suited for seafood pairings.

• Artisanal Sake: Featuring traditional styles like Daiginjo and seasonal Akiagari (sake brewed in winter and aged through summer until autumn), delivering a smooth, mature, and balanced finish.

2. Signature Regional Specialties: Mt. Fuji Curry

In addition to fine beverages, the exhibition highlights Yamanashi’s unique culinary creativity, featuring the world-famous Mt. Fuji Curry—a visually striking dish crafted to mimic the iconic blue and snow-capped peak of Mount Fuji.
