Fukumitsuya Marunouchi (CLOSED)

Legend has it that geisha used sake as a facial lotion before applying makeup, and that sake brewery workers have soft, smooth hands, thanks to the high nutritional content of fermented rice. At the flagship store of the long-established Fukumitsuya sake brewery, founded in 1625 in Kanazawa (Ishikawa Prefecture), you can not only taste and shop for excellent junmai sake, but also discover the myriad of other products derived from the sake-making process: beauty and skincare products, ice cream made with sake lees, energy drinks made with koji, seafood pickled in sake lees, and many more things to eat, drink and apply. Oh, you can even shop forJapanese artisanal ceramic and glassware to store and serve sake.
