Are you familiar with doburoku, a rare type of Japanese sake? Unlike regular sake, doburoku is made by bottling the unfiltered mash (moromi) while fermentation continues. This makes it very difficult to store, and it's rarely served at restaurants. Yamane Brewery handcrafts this precious sake in small batches. It may be the only sustainable brewery in Japan operating out of a repurposed convenience store. While most breweries use stainless steel tanks, Yamane uses traditional wooden barrels made from local Nishikawa timber. This rare method allows natural microorganisms to thrive, adding unique flavors from the wood and water—resulting in a one-of-a-kind sake every time. During the tour, you...

やまね酒造
First, you’ll visit the home of the head of a traditional Japanese house, full of character and history. There, you’ll receive a lecture on how sake brewing at Yamane Brewery differs significantly from conventional methods.
Next, you’ll enter a sustainable sake brewery—possibly the only one in Japan repurposed from a former convenience store. You’ll observe the use of local wooden barrels and traditional brewing techniques, and experience how each batch of sake becomes truly unique through the influence of wood and the coexistence with microorganisms.
Afterward, you’ll return to the host’s home for a tasting session using sake cups made from Hannō’s local clay, which is no longer in production. You’ll enjoy three completely different types of sake, including doburoku, a rare and unfiltered sake that is difficult to store and rarely served in restaurants. Each sake is paired with a carefully selected snack to complement its flavor.
