Hiroshima/The Birthplace of Ginjo Sake Learn and Taste
Ginjo-shu is one of the most famous types of sake. This tour will take you to Akitsu, the birthplace of ginjo-shu, and Saijo, one of Japan’s three major sake brewery regions, to learn about sake while tasting Hiroshima's sake. The tour guide will explain about sake and sake brewing methods in Hiroshima, so you can deepen your knowledge of sake. Lunch will be served at a restaurant owned by Kamotsuru Sake Brewery, one of Saijo's sake breweries, where you can enjoy the famous local dish "Bishu-nabe" (sake hot pot).
