The town boasts eight breweries, with seven located along Sakagura-Dori, also known as Sake Brewery Street. Our tour will take us through these historic streets, moving from one brewery to the next to sample the local sake.
Saijo’s breweries are clustered in this compact area due to the presence of “shikomi mizu,” a vital water source for sake production. Known as “miracle water” for its medium hardness ideal for brewing sake, it flows beneath the Saijo district. Interestingly, the water’s composition varies slightly depending on the brewery’s location. Shikomi Mizu is indispensable for sake making.
To truly experience the essence of sake, a visit to Saijo in Hiroshima Prefecture is essential.
