Sato Brewery

Founded in 1874, this long-established miso and soy sauce brewery in Ama, Aichi Prefecture, preserves the traditional wooden barrel brewing method and continues to produce soybean miso and tamari soy sauce that takes advantage of the "brewery’s unique microbial character" created by the yeast and lactic acid bacteria that live in the brewery. You can learn about fermentation culture and miso-making while touring the charming brewery, and also enjoy a miso ball making workshop. After the workshop, you can purchase fermented products such as Shippo Miso and soy sauce at the direct sales store.
