Do you like Japanese Sake??
Takayama’s local sake has been brewed since around the middle of the Edo period (about 300 years ago).
Truly blessed with perfect conditions for brewing sake - the mountains’ pure water, Hida-grown rice, and the climate - this local sake has excellent flavor and body.
There are 8 breweries in the city, each selling its own unique varieties.
Eight sake breweries open their brewing facilities, which are not open to visitors at other times, for a period of one week in turn.
Date: 18th January -- 28th February
Place:Sake Breweries in the city(Please ask the reception for the detail)
After the guided tour of the brewery, sake is offered to visitors for sampling. In addition, a commemorative golden sake cup made specially in Hida Takayama is presented to each visitor.
