This experience is available only from April to October, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the brewery and enjoy sake tasting in a relaxed seasonal atmosphere.

Morita Sake Brewery is more than a place of production. It represents a continuation of local culture and craftsmanship that has been passed down since the Edo period. The brewery is known not only for its sake, but also for preserving cultural heritage that reflects the spirit of Japanese artisans.

One of the most remarkable features of this site is a traditional tea room believed to have been associated with Sen Sotan, the grandson of the famous tea master Sen no Rikyu. This tea room symbolizes the deep connection between sake and tea, two pillars of Japanese culture that share values of refinement, hospitality, and seasonal appreciation.

During the guided visit, learn about the history of Morita Sake Brewery, its brewing philosophy, and how sake production has developed alongside regional culture. The guide will also explain the role of the tea room and its cultural meaning, giving insight into how sake and tea traditions coexist on the same grounds.

After the tour, enjoy a guided tasting of four popular sake varieties produced by Morita Sake Brewery. Each sake is introduced with explanations of aroma and flavor, allowing you to understand how craftsmanship and tradition influence taste.

This experience is ideal for travelers interested in Japanese history, craftsmanship, and cultural harmony. Rather than focusing only on production, the tour offers a broader view of how sake fits into Japan’s cultural life.
