The brewery is known for its brand "Yokobue," which primarily features junmai sake and a variety of other Japanese sake.
 "Yokobue Junmai Sake" is characterized by its dry taste with a crisp aftertaste, followed by a gentle sweetness and umami that unfolds.
 This sake is beloved by many as a classic that never gets boring.
 Additionally, the label design of "Yokobue" has also received acclaim for its beauty.
Ito Sake Brewery offers a plan called the "Gokuraku Set," which allows visitors to enjoy sake from other nearby breweries as well.
 By using this set, visitors can taste multiple varieties of sake in one go, making it a delightful experience for sake lovers.
 Particularly, varieties like "Hiyagoroshi" and "Junmai Ginjo" can be compared and enjoyed, adding to the appeal.
The brewery is particular about its ingredients, using high-quality rice such as Miyama Nishiki sourced from the local area.
 As a result, it has garnered support from sake enthusiasts who visit from across Japan.
 The local water source, known for its delicious quality, is also an indispensable element in sake production.
Due to its location, Ito Sake Brewery is in close proximity to other renowned breweries referred to as the “Suwa Five Breweries”.
 Visiting these breweries together can lead to a deeper understanding and experience of Japanese culture.
 We highly recommend taking the time to visit and savor their delicious selection of sake.
