What is a Sake Brewery?
Sake is a sake made from rice, produced since ancient times in Japan by the action of koji mold, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast.
The aroma and taste vary depending on the region, the rice, and the producer.
The brewery where sake is made and stored is called sakagura, and sake breweries brew sake in their breweries and sell it in their stores.
Since many sake brewers are originally from the prime families, they are the masters of their area.
Therefore, the historical architecture is one of the attractions of a sake brewery tour.
The delicate taste of sake comes from the taste of the water, the rice, and the careful work of the brewers and toji at each brewery.
Therefore, each sake brewery has its own unique taste, and the world of sake is as vast as the number of breweries.
Sake brewery tours allow visitors to directly visit such breweries and experience various things related to sake, such as a tour of the brewery, explanations by the brewers, sake tasting, and a visit to a historical museum.
We encourage you to visit the site and experience the scenery where the sake was born, so you can taste the origins of the famous sake through all five senses.
