Traveling the World #85 (Asia Series) Watanebe Sake Brewery @ Hida...

Hi Steemians,

Apart from the world class beef at Hida, Hida also has some of the best Japanese sake in Japan. In Hida, it is a colder part of Japan and brewing sake is best in these temperatures. The area also has great mountain water which produces top quality rice which is essential to make good sake. Therefore when you visit Hida, you will see many stores selling sake of their own brand or a variety of them.

除了飛騨牛，飛騨市其實有很多很有名的日本清酒。因為飛騨市在日本是比較冷的地方，所以做出來的清酒是特別香。還有一點就是飛騨市的山水非常好讓當地的米種出來非常香讓清酒更好喝。如果你們有機會到飛騨市，你會看到很多買清酒的商店買他們自己做的酒或者是不同牌子的也有

Many stores that sell sake has these old bottles hanging around their shops to tell customers what they sell.

在商店門口，你會看見很多舊的酒瓶掛在門口讓客人知道這裡有酒賣

As you can see, there was a huge variety of sakes at these liquor stores.

真是有很多清酒給我們選擇

Close to where we lived, there is a brewery called Watanebe Sake Brewery and is quite famous in Japan as they have won many awards in the past few years.

跟我介紹的服務員說兩種的味道真的又點不同雖然看起來有點像

I ended up getting this one as this sake came number 1 in the whole of Japan last year. I bought two bottles. And look at the price - not bad for an award winning sake!
