Sake Brewery Tour・Utsunomiya Shuzo (Shikisakura)

Nestled in the rural area along the clear Kinu River. This sake brewery continues its heartfelt sake production from milling its own rice, primarily led by three certified Toji (master brewers) of the Nanbu and Shimono traditions.
Sake brewed with the blessings of heaven and earth, the carefully selected water, rice, and yeast, and the skills and passion of the brewers create a rich flavor.
