Fushimi Sake District

伏見酒蔵

Fushimi, Kyoto · 京都

Kyoto’s brewing quarter, where soft groundwater supports around twenty sake makers, several with tasting rooms, along a canal lined with willows and old boat sheds.

Why it’s worth it

Fushimi sake is softer than Nada’s because of the water — you can taste the difference in a flight at Gekkeikan’s museum, twenty minutes from Inari.
