Walking through old traditional streets in Niigata will bring you back in time where you will be able to feel the sense of the past times combined with modern. Niigata is famous for its beautiful coastal and mountainous sceneries but Niigata prefecture is also well known for the brewing of "miso" "soy sauce" "sake" which have been carried out for centuries. Taste traditional Japanese products, enjoy seafood and vegetable dishes plus Soba noodles and feel what it is like to live in a rural area on the Sea of Japan side, which is completely different from big cities on the Pacific Ocean side. Learn the brewing process of top-quality Japanese sake from fermenting to bottling. A 60-minute brewery factory tour is available only on weekdays between December to April. Even a 20-minute brewery tour in other seasons will give you a very good overview of the brewing process. Meet Japan where traditions live hand-by-hand with modern times.
Depending on your location of your hotel in Tokyo, your typical itinerary begins in the early morning at 8:00am from your hotel. Will take Shinkansen train to Nagaoka city, a local district in Niigata prefecture where we spend a half day tasing various sake, soy source or miso and then soba noodle dishes and set meals for lunch. Will try to match sake with our lunch just like we do for wine. After the sake brewery tour and lunch, will be able to come back to your hotel in Tokyo in the evening. Highlights of the tour are; Sake Tasting at a local Sake Museum inside the local Brewery which was founded in 16th century. Brewery visit is not included here. Visit to famous Saffron Wine Storehouse with colorful reliefs of zodiac animals on the plaster wall. Local Soy Source/Miso Brewery Visit and opportunity to talk with the owner. Sake Brewery Tour at a Sake Brewery known for best pure-rice Daiginjo and known to be one of the best breweries in Japan. Lunch at a Japanese restaurant operated by the Brewery.
