Sushimaru Dogo, located in Matsuyama's historic Dogo hot spring district in Ehime Prefecture, has introduced a new "Ehime Local Sake Server," allowing guests to sample locally produced sake for just ¥500 per glass — the price of a single coin.
The service is open to out-of-prefecture visitors exploring the Dogo sightseeing area as well as local residents, offering a relaxed way to discover Ehime's sake culture.
Tasting Ehime's Local Sake with Ease
The "Ehime Local Sake Server" features a self-pour format: guests serve themselves directly from a dedicated server, making it simple to taste a little of each label or find the right pairing for a meal.
The current lineup includes:
- Ishizuchi Murokajunmai
- Yukisuzume Jun'on Tokubetsu Junmai Ginjo
- Yamatan Masamune
- Umenishiki Chokara-sen
Spanning both sweeter and drier profiles, the selection is well-suited for first-time sake drinkers as well as those already familiar with Japanese rice wine.
Pairing Local Sake with Dogo Cuisine
Sushimaru Dogo has been serving Seto Inland Sea seafood and local dishes for 78 years. With the local sake server now in place, guests can explore food-and-sake pairings more casually than before — whether trying familiar regional flavors or discovering a new favorite label.
