Kamotsuru

Founded in 1623 and among the best-known Saijō sake breweries, Kamotsuru is worth a look as it has a large tasting room, and screens a video about the district. Its other claim to fame is that, when Prime Minister Abe met US president Barack Obama in Japan in 2014, they toasted with a sake brewed here – namely Diginjo Tokusei Gold.
