HAVE YOU EVER TRIED JAPANESE SAKE?

You can try it at the Consular Office of Japan Booth if you are over 18 years old.

Also we have three workshops at 11am, 1pm and 3pm to explain the Sake making process.

Japanese Sake, like beer and wine, is a fermented alcohol and although they share this in common, the fermentation process is quite different. Come and try the unique flavor of Japanese Sake.

FabWrap - Eco-friendly Japanese wrapping cloth -

Welcome to the beautiful concept of FABWRAP using Japanese Furoshiki in a sustainable way that can have a real impact on our environment.

Furoshiki is an eco-friendly Japanese wrapping cloth traditionally used for wrapping gifts, carrying goods, and even decoration. Implementing the old Japanese tradition of using Furoshiki with 100% upcycled material is the most suitable way for the adaptable country of Aotearoa New Zealand to gift more environmentally friendly. We aim for zero environmental waste as our materials are 100% upcycled.

Come along and learn more about FABWRAP. There will be free lessons on wrapping techniques and daily used Furoshiki.

Let’s discover the Furoshiki world!
