Weaving connections
through the art of sake—
its pour,
its flavor,
and the moments
it brings together.

SUMIRE NISHIKAWA

As a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter, I have dedicated myself to introducing foreign travelers to the traditions and aesthetic sensibilities of Japan. Through immersive cultural experiences that transcend language I strive to convey the depth and richness of Japanese culture with care and precision.

In addition, as a certified International Sake Sommelier and passionate sake enthusiast, I actively share the allure of Japanese sake. By organizing tasting events and engaging directly with brewers, I highlight the diversity and regional character of sake culture, offering enjoyable experiences for both newcomers and seasoned aficionados.

Furthermore, as a Certified Master of the Nihon Buyo in the Nishikawa school, I pursuing the knowledge of the spiritual essence and seasonal expressions embedded in traditional movements. Through dance, I embody the Japanese sensitivity to nature and harmony, and work to pass on the beauty of classical performing arts to future generations.

My mission is to share the multifaceted charm of Japanese culture with the world—through language, taste, and physical expression. This is the heart of my work.
