Why You Should Visit
Sixteen sake breweries from Fushimi, Kyoto, gather at Gekkeikan's Showa Kura brewery for a spring tasting event. Admission comes with four drink coupons and a bottle of chaser water, and each brewery pours up to two labels, 27 in all. This edition the brewers themselves staff the booths, and premium sakes are available for two coupons. The venue is a factory yard under a large roof, with food booths run by local Fushimi restaurants and a shop where you can buy bottles of anything you liked. A good way to taste across Fushimi's breweries in a single visit.
