I had the impression that many sake breweries did not open their breweries for public tours in December, which I imagined must be an important season for sake brewing. I was impressed by the special atmosphere of the old wooden building that has been carefully preserved, and as I entered, I could feel the quiet breath of sake as well as the maturation of Izumo's natural environment and human activities. I was moved by the sense of nature and human activities that have matured in Izumo, along with the quiet breath of the sake. I had decided to go to the Okuizumo area to experience the scale of mythology, and my visit here made my trip from the next day even more imaginative. I also learned the joy of connecting with the makers of the sake as the recipient. I learned a completely new way to enjoy sake, a new way to enjoy the food that accompanies it, and most importantly, a new way to cherish it. Thank you very much for allowing me to be a part of your work.
