MK Guide Recommends
The Sawanotsuru Sake Museum in Kobe’s Nada district offers a deep dive into the rich history and culture of sake brewing. Established in a restored wooden brewery from the late Edo period, the museum features exhibits of traditional sake-making tools, interactive displays on the brewing process, and models of historical ships used for transporting sake. Visitors can explore the "funaba" (pressing room), learn about the techniques and dedication of past sake brewers, and enjoy free sake tastings in the museum shop. The museum, rebuilt after the 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake, provides a unique and educational experience for those interested in Japan's brewing heritage.
