It’s not easy to buy quality sake in Berlin. Whether you’re new to sake or already a connoisseur – “Sake Kontor” in Friedrichshain is definitely the right place to go. Since 2004 Susanne Rost imports, distributes and sells high quality sakes direct from the finest breweries in Japan; from crystal clear to milky, from sweet to dry, Sake Kontor boasts a comprehensive selection including Europe’s very first sake “Hadakajima” from Denmark. I highly recommend visiting this specialty store if you want to dive into the deep world of sake and get a proper introduction from the shop owners. If it’s too far for you, they have an online store so you may order everything there.
