He frequently visited the U.S. and Europe, especially France, to explore the overseas expansion of sake while looking at architecture. After returning to Japan, he established a network for sake brewing and sake in Japan and opened the sake bar SAKEBARO in Nakameguro, Tokyo, in 2015. With his unique design and space, he promotes the essential globalization of sake and Japanese culture.
