The Origin of Sake, Asahikawa


The Origin of Sake, Asahikawa, originally uploaded by Rollofunk.

Went down the main street in this part of town to visit the Otokoyama sake brewery. Apparently it was founded somewhere down south about 340 years ago, but relocated to Asahikawa because of the superior climate and water. Something the locals are pretty proud of.
