Meet Taser at Sinchon Station for a short neighborhood walk before sitting down to Korean-style meat dishes and wine pairings. You’ll learn Korean drinking manners, basic wine ideas, and how the guide matches each pour with the food. Venue and group size can change.

“This was such a nice experience! I booked it as a surprise for my mum who is visiting me in Korea. I thought we might need some conversation with others by this point in the trip… I can’t recommend this enough. There was only us and one other person on our tour. Taser was a very good host who knew a lot about the area, Sinchon and about wine. But he was also very thoughtful, and interesting and great to talk to. As was the other guest on the tour which made for a great few hours enjoying lovely food and wine, and great company. It really was something different…”
