Brewery regions are very pretty around now, so green and lush, and brewery people are nice. Sake breweries make Sake ,especially premium from Yamadanishiki ,a rice grown in Hyogo. There’s certainly nothing wrong with that, but when we visit a brewery in, part of the fun of the visit is tasting Sake made from rice grown in the province , near where we’re standing.

This brewery own a well which is dressed up like a Shrine. Their gratitude to water is well expressed here. Their low mineral water ,called soft water, gives a smooth and clear Sake taste
