Ototo Uses Its Platform to Educate Guests on Japanese Rice Wine
Ototo is an authentic sake bar that opened in Los Angeles in late May. The establishment specializes in serving traditional Japanese rice wine, however, the mission extends beyond taste. The way the founders of Ototo see it, a large amount of guests have a knowledge gap when it comes to the beverage they are consuming. The authentic sake bar seeks to remedy this with "descriptions that balance info with entertainment."
Ototo seeks to educate consumers about the traditional Japanese drink through offerings that are rich, rare and interesting. One of the more enticing options on the menu is Fukucho, which is a Hiroshima-derived sake by a female master brewer "who single-handedly revived an extinct heirloom rice breed over the course of a decade."
