Founded in the 2nd year of the Kyōhō era (1717), the long-established "Obara Sake Brewery" boasts a history of about 300 years. While valuing tradition, it is known for its strong commitment to producing only pure rice sake and its innovative approach. Located on a picturesque street lined with kura-style buildings, stepping inside reveals a surprising world of sake brewing.
The biggest niche point here is that they play "classical music" to the fermentation tanks where the mash is fermented.
At the direct sales store, you can not only taste the mellow musical sake but also encounter playful drinks that are unexpected for a long-established brewery.
