Kikumasamune Sake Museum
The Kikumasamune Sake Museum (菊正宗酒造記念館) offers a captivating glimpse into Japan's sake-brewing traditions. Housed in a charming wooden-plaster building, the museum displays wooden tools, containers, and machinery once used in sake production. The exhibits are presented with atmospheric lighting and traditional music, creating an immersive experience that brings the rich history of sake to life.
Just across the road, the Kikumasamune Taru Sake Meister Factory showcases the craft of making wooden barrels used for storing sake. Visitors can observe the barrel-making process and learn about its significance in sake brewing. Entry to the Meister Factory requires advance reservations, which can be conveniently booked online.
