This is a WAK JAPAN’s new walk tour featuring fermented Japanese seasoning such as shoyu soy sauce and miso as well as sake. The WAK’s tour guide takes you to popular shops of shoyu and miso located west next to Kyoto Imperial old Palace and explains their history and especially the great role of Koji yeast.
After the shops, let’s go to WAK JAPAN’s machiya house through the Imperial park at which you can enjoy many kinds of seasonal flower and plants.
At the house, finally, you can taste snacks with fermented seasonings along with 3 kinds of sake. Also we prepare healthy smoothie containing sake-kasu lees.
During the tour, you must be surprised to know how the Japanese particular yeast, Koji gives us healthy and anti-aged idea of life as well as raising the taste of food. Also this tour includes some souvenir from a miso shop and a shoyu shop as well! Have a fun!!
