Private Tour for Crafting Umeshu Plum Wine & Food Sample Making

☆Food Sample RiKi

Food samples—realistic replicas of various dishes—are a common sight at the entrances of restaurants throughout Japan, representing a distinctive cultural practice that began during the Taisho to early Showa periods (1910s–1930s).

At Food Sample RiKi, you can create your own replica to bring home! The basic experience fee is covered in the tour, while optional add-ons and decorations can be purchased for an additional cost.

☆Tofu Studio Nukumori-batake

Focusing on fresh, handmade tofu and health-oriented dishes, Nukumori-batake provides a serene environment to unwind and rejuvenate. You will savor a delightful and nutritious lunch here, with all meal costs fully included in the tour price.

☆Umeshugura Oyama

Umeshugura Oyama is an acclaimed plum wine (umeshu) distillery known both domestically and internationally.

You will partake in a brewery tour, a hands-on workshop to produce your own plum wine, along with ample time for souvenir shopping. The costs for the brewery tour and the plum wine crafting experience are part of the tour fee.

A non-alcoholic plum syrup option is offered for those who do not drink alcohol or for children.
