Founded in the second 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 charming street lined with brewery buildings, stepping inside reveals a surprising world of sake production.
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 music sake but also encounter playful and unexpected sake that is not typical of a long-established brewery.
