    Overview


    Izushi Shuzo is a historic sake brewery located in Izushi Town, Toyooka City, Hyogo Prefecture.
     Established during the Edo period, this brewery is characterized by its red earthen wall exterior, giving a warm and nostalgic feel to visitors.
     The operating hours are from 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM, and the days off are irregular, so it is recommended to check before visiting.
    Upon stepping inside the store, you will be overwhelmed by its atmosphere.
     The interior retains the charm of the Meiji and Taisho eras, featuring a reception area and a tokonoma alcove, making you feel as if you've traveled back in time.
     The staff are kind and calm in their approach, making it a comfortable experience for first-time visitors.
    Izushi Shuzo is particularly famous for its sake brand "Raraku Turu.
    " This junmai sake, while being dry, is very easy to drink, and it has received high praise from many customers.
     They also offer "Josen" and "Josen Genshu," each providing a unique flavor experience.
     Tasting is available, allowing you the opportunity to find the sake that best suits your preferences.
    Additionally, the store serves amazake as well.
     The "Cold Amazake" is available in both straight and soda water options, with both varieties being highly praised for their deliciousness.
     Particularly, its refreshing taste is perfect for soothing a tired body after a long day.
    The chefs take great care in selecting their ingredients, using only carefully chosen raw materials from various regions of Japan.
     Therefore, customers can not only enjoy high-quality sake but also gain insight into the story behind it.
     Moreover, it is often recommended that the local specialty, "sara soba" (cold buckwheat noodles), pairs wonderfully with the sake, allowing you to enjoy a fusion of local food culture.
    Izushi Town itself is an attractive tourist spot, but by stopping by Izushi Shuzo, you can spend a heartwarming moment enjoying delicious sake.
     Why not visit and experience its charm for yourself?
