Shizuoka 蛋奶素選擇 釀酒廠之旅

If I could give this experience 20 stars, I would! Fukaya San was incredibly kind and thorough, and even printed out his presentation in English before I got there so he could explain the process to me in my language. We were able to view the facilities, help with labeling, and make our own soy sauce and Shoyu Koji. The knowledge was fascinating, the structure (both old and new!) were beautiful, the staff was welcoming and the soy sauce is the best! I cannot express how meaningful this experience was for me, and I encourage everyone to book this experience!! Thank you Sakae Shoyu Brewery!

A rare behind-the-scenes look at traditional soy sauce production. Walking through the brewery and sampling different soy sauces was very memorable. The host was friendly and knowledgeable, clearly proud of the family history. Including a small food pairing (like tofu or vegetables) would enhance the tasting experience. Still, a great experience for food lovers and fermentation fans.

Wearing a kimono and enjoying tea while overlooking the coast was relaxing and elegant. The preparation and kimono fitting were enjoyable. Views of Mt. Fuji depend heavily on weather, which may affect expectations. The sweets and tea were pleasant. Best for travelers seeking a calm, scenic experience.

Stepping inside an 8th-generation soy sauce brewery was truly fascinating. Seeing the wooden barrels and learning about traditional fermentation methods made the process come alive. Tasting several varieties of soy sauce helped me understand how aging and technique affect flavor. The experience felt educational without being overwhelming. A wonderful tour for anyone curious about the craftsmanship behind Japanese cuisine.

A great introduction to sake brewing and tasting. Seeing the tools and learning how sake is made helped me understand the process better. The guide was friendly and did his best to explain everything clearly. A short handout or tasting overview would help overcome language barriers. Still, a very enjoyable first brewery experience.

This experience was amazing. We came all the way from Hawaii, stayed in Tokyo and caught the Shinkansen to Hamamatsu just for this. It did not disappoint! Our guide Teresa was so nice and did an excellent job at interpreting for sensei, who also taught us so much about the shoyu making process. We will never forget this experience!!!
