Mitsutake Shuzo Brewery, established in the Genroku era, is one of the few remaining sake breweries in Hama-shuku's brewery district. Known for its sake brands like "Kinpa" and "Mitsutake," as well as the imo shochu "Makai e no Izanai" (Invitation to the Demon World), the brewery offers a glimpse into traditional sake production. Visitors can enjoy sake tasting and explore the shop, which retains its Edo-era charm. Located near the Sakagura-dori Koen park, it's an easily accessible stop while exploring the area. The brewery is known for its unique naming sense, such as "Shall We Dance," adding a memorable touch to the experience. It's a great place to find local sake and shochu souvenirs.
