Nada Sake Brewery

If you like Japanese Sake and is currently in Kansai area, then don’t fail to visit Nada Sake Brewery.

Nada Area is known for its great sake all over Hyogo Prefecture.  Since M and N knows that T loves Japanese Sake, they brought us to Nada. T had a grand time tasting all the free samples. If he was not financially challenged at that time, he would have probably bought a lot but he did bought a Daiginjo in Kikumasamune.

Here is the MAP for all the current Sake Brewery in Nada. Most of the museums have a free tasting, just be careful not to get drunk though :) .

The Longest Suspension Bridge

The Akashi -Kaikyo Bridge is know as the Longest Suspension Bridge in the World. It connects Kobe and Awaji Island.

The Bridge and Kobe

 

While in Awaji, we decided to get some Awaji Beef which is the first stage of becoming Kobe Beef. According to N and M, Kobe Beef came from Awaji Island so before it was called Kobe Beef it was first Awaji Beef.

Anyway, it was cheaper so we tried it.

Again this trip would not have been possible if not for N and M, Thank you very much :)
