EH-shuzo Sake Brewery

The tour offered by the EH-shuzo brewery makes for an interesting and enjoyable experience. You will be taken through the brewery as your guide explains the different stages of the brewing process to you. The commentary is insightful; the great vats and temperature-controlled rooms are impressive, as is the building with its clean and corporate feel.

After the tour, visitors are taken downstairs to the tasting area where they will find an interesting display of traditional Cypress storage vessels and earthenware. Visitors are offered a taste of the sake from the brewery and invited to view the collection of sake-related artifacts and ask any related questions. Watch out for the sugidama (cypress fir balls) which appear outside the brewery midwinter to announce the arrival of the annual brew.
