Tambasasayama is the birthplace of the Tamba Toji, one of Japan’s three great master brewer guilds. At Karibaichi Sake Brewery, sake is brewed using the traditional techniques passed down by the Tamba Toji, pure spring water from Tambasasayama, and Yamada Nishiki rice grown in the same water system. Surrounded by satoyama (rural woodlands), this historic brewery has been crafting sake for over 100 years. You’ll be invited inside the brewery to experience the brewing process of “Shugetsu” and feel the connection between people and nature that has been nurtured for a century.
