The tour is deepened by a cultural immersion, with tastings held in a traditional Japanese setting using local Hanno ware.

Additionally, the opportunity to interact with the Toji, or Master Brewer, adds an educational dimension to the tour, providing insights into the art and science of sake brewing.
