Yamato River Sake Brewery North Wind Museum

【Timeless Sake Brewery Architecture】"Daiwakawa Sake Brewery Northern Climate Museum" that conveys the breath of Edo to the present

Since its founding in the 2nd year of the Kansei era (1790), the long-established "Daiwakawa Sake Brewery" has been brewing sake in the city of Kitakata for generations. When establishing a new brewery to mark the 200th anniversary, the old store where sake brewing actually took place was transformed into the museum "Northern Climate Museum" to convey history and tradition.

■ Time Slip through Edo, Taisho, and Showa Breweries

The unique highlight here is the "transition of architectural beauty" with multiple storehouses (kura) built in the Edo, Taisho, and Showa eras lined up.

• Overwhelming space: As soon as you step in, you are greeted by thick beams that shine black and rows of massive wooden barrels that have been used over time.
• The breath of the brewers: A space that allows you to feel the heat of the former brewers and the breath of yeast that has permeated over many years.

■ A blissful moment at the hidden gem "Cafe Tenku Kairou"

After enjoying the historical atmosphere, head to "Cafe Tenku Kairou," which has been tastefully renovated from a corner of the brewery.

• Sweets from the brewery: The adult sake cake lavishly made with the signature brand "Yaemon" that has fans worldwide and the refreshing amazake soda are exquisite.
• Intersection of tradition and innovation: Tasting sake is also possible at the direct sales store. Enjoy the deep flavors in the cool air of the historic brewery.
