5 Recommended Places
for Traditional Sake Brewing in Japan
-----------
●Traditional sake brewing developed in each region
“Traditional sake brewing” has developed along with Japan’s climate and culture. Sake, which originated in Japan, has been handed down for more than 1,000 years through a combination of “koji,” an essential ingredient in the Japanese diet, blessed ingredients and water from various regions, and the culture of the craftspeople responsible for sake brewing.

●1　Hyogo
There are more than 60 sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture, and each region has its own history and unique sake brewing traditions, including Nada-Gogo, Itami, Harima, and Tanba-Sasayama.
Nada Gogo, known as the best sake brewing area in Japan, is located between Kobe and Nishinomiya cities and boasts the largest production of sake in Japan.

●2　Nara
Nara Prefecture, the ancient capital of Japan, is known as the birthplace of sake. Sake was originally called “muddy sake,” which was cloudy white and had the appearance of grains of rice.
The technology to turn muddy sake into clear sake was developed at Shoreki-ji Temple in Nara City. It is said that Shoreki-ji is the only temple in Japan with a sake brewing license.

●3　Niigata
Niigata Prefecture, a land of snow, is famous as a rice-producing region where delicious rice is grown. Blessed with high quality rice, which is the raw material for sake, and clean melted snow water, Niigata Prefecture is also a major sake brewing center. There are 88 sake breweries in Niigata Prefecture, the largest number of sake breweries in Japan by prefecture!

●4　Kagoshima
Kagoshima Prefecture, located in the southern part of Kyushu, is famous as a shochu kingdom, with the largest number of shochu breweries in Japan and over 2,000 different brands of shochu. You can taste richly flavored “authentic shochu” made by the traditional single distillation process that has been handed down from generation to generation.

●5　Okinawa
Awamori is a traditional Okinawan liquor. Those made in Okinawa are labeled “Ryukyu Awamori,” a true mark of Okinawan Awamori. There are 47 Awamori breweries in Okinawa Prefecture, each producing their own unique Awamori.
Okinawa Prefecture is known for its many drinkers and partygoers, so this is a great place for those who want to enjoy drinking while mingling with the locals.

Registered as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage
Japan’s Traditional Sake Brewing and Types
-----------
●What is “Traditional Sake Brewing”
Traditional sake brewing” refers to the manual process of making sake using koji, which has been handed down in Japan for more than 500 years. It has developed in accordance with the climate of each region of Japan, and the techniques and knowledge have been passed down by artisans.
And on December 5, 2024, “traditional sake brewing” was registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.

●Sake (Japanese Rice Wine)
Sake made in Japan from Japanese rice, rice koji, and water. It is said that the prototype of today’s sake, which uses koji bacteria, was created about 1,300 years ago during the Nara period (710-794). The alcohol content is considered to be less than 22 degrees centigrade, and is generally around 15 degrees centigrade.
Also, like wine, it can be enjoyed in a variety of flavors, including sweet and dry.

●Shochu
Shochu is a Japanese “distilled liquor” made by distilling alcohol-containing substances, and is in the same category as gin, vodka, and whiskey.
It is made by distilling a brew (fermented liquid) that is fermented by adding water and yeast to ingredients such as potatoes, barley, and rice. It has a higher alcohol content than sake, with an average alcohol content of around 25%.

●Awamori
With a history of approximately 600 years, it is the oldest distilled spirit in Japan, and has been handed down in Okinawa Prefecture. It is made from rice (mostly Thai rice), water, yeast, and a special type of koji called black koji. It is classified as shochu under the liquor tax law, but its alcohol content is higher than that of shochu, ranging from around 30 to as high as 50 degrees Celsius.

●Mirin
It is a liquor seasoning made by saccharifying and aging glutinous rice, rice koji, and shochu or brewer’s alcohol, which has been used for about 500 years. It has an alcohol content of around 14 degrees and is indispensable for Japanese dishes such as simmered dishes and boiled fish. It has a deep sweetness and richness, and when used in cooking, it enhances sweetness and umami, and adds shine and luster.
