The WAK’s tour guide takes you to popular shops of vinegar, shoyu and miso located west of Kyoto Imperial old Palace and explains their history and especially the great role of Koji yeast. 

After the shops, let’s go to sake brewery (or l liquor store) where you can enjoy tasting 3 kinds of Japanese sake.
