An exclusive adventure into the other side of Kansai - witnessing a wide array of deeply ancient production arts such as pearl diving, salt making and Japanese tea - besides obviously sake production as well. Featuring a visit to the National Shrine of Japan, Ise Jingu.

Your guides for this trip are the founders behind Singapore’s first sake brewery Yumika and Reuben. The nature of their businesses often calls them to all parts of Japan, and they're experienced and well-versed with the best spots in most cities and villages. They're equipped with the general know-how on handling emergencies, and having a great (and comfortable) time.
