Generally, when I think of Japan, images of stunning temples and shrines, the majestic scenery of Mt Fuji, the sound of footsteps of women in kimono<\/em> down cobblestone paths, mouthwatering <\/em>sushi, <\/em>and sipping sake <\/a><\/em> (\u9152) in tiny izakayas<\/a><\/em><\/strong> (\u5c45\u9152\u5c4b) come to mind. For me, sake <\/em>is an integral aspect of Japan with many hidden layers and nuances waiting to be peeled back and explored. I\u2019ve always enjoyed drinking sake<\/em> but never knew much about its subtleties and distinctions until I took a trip to see the Nambu Toji (sake masters) of Japan.<\/a> Subsequently, a trip to Yui (\u7531\u6bd4\u753a, Yui<\/em>-ch\u014d), Shizuoka<\/a> (\u9759\u5ca1\u770c) to taste the artisan sake at the 100-year-old Shosetsu Sake Brewery<\/strong> allowed me to delve deeper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shosetsu Sake Brewery<\/a> is located in the town of Yui, Shimizu, in Shizuoka Prefecture. As the 16th station along the old Tokaido highway,<\/a> Yui is a perfect stopover if you wish to explore the history of Hiroshige Utagawa\u2019s ukiyo-e<\/a><\/em> prints and the old Tokaido road (\u65e7\u6771\u6d77\u9053, Ky\u016b-T\u014dkaid\u014d<\/em>), taste Suruga Bay (\u99ff\u6cb3\u6e7e, Suruga-wan<\/em>) sakura shrimp (\u685c\u6d77\u8001, sakura-ebi<\/em>) or sip some of Shosetsu\u2019s delightful fresh sake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
