Want to learn about the fascinating world of sake in Japan? On this tour of 3 distilleries in Nada, we'll discover the history and secrets of this ancient drink. We'll also enjoy a tasting of unique flavours and aromas. You'll love it!
We'll meet at the designated time at Uozaki Station in Kobe to begin our sake tour of Nada, a district famous for producing this iconic drink. From here, we'll begin a pleasant walk through picturesque streets, where we'll first admire the impressive Sakura-Masamune and Kenbishi distilleries, two of the oldest in Japan.
Our first stop will be the Kiku-Masamune distillery, founded in 1659 and known for its traditional crafting processes such as taruzake: sake aged in barrels. Depending on availability, we'll be able to visit the workshop where artisans craft these barrels by hand. Over this 1-hour visit, you'll get to taste this traditional sake alongside 2 others you can choose from 6 premium options.
Continuing our tour, we'll then make our way to the Sake Hakutsuru Museum, the biggest sake distributor in Nada. Here we'll show you the interactive museum while we explain the various tools and equipment in the exhibition. We'll do a tasting here too, this time 2 types of Daiginjo. You'll love it!
After 1 hour in this museum, we'll head over to Nada Go Go Sake Tokoro, an old production site that used to belong to Kenbishi, one of the most renowned sake brands in Japan. Here, we'll do a final immersive sake tasting, where you'll try 3 carefully selected types, paired with a snack.
Lastly, we'll walk to Mikage Station, where we'll say our goodbyes after a total of 3.5-4.5 hours.
