Flavors of Kanazawa
Abundant natural beauty, pristine mountain water, and the bubbling calm of hot springs categorize Yuwaka, an onsen town with a rich local history and easy accessibility from Kanazawa. The village combines both traditional tastes and local flavors, resulting in an atmosphere that is exciting, restorative, and brimming with innovation. This up-and-coming brewery-distillery combination crafts both beer and whiskey, developing beverages wholly unique to the region, often including local tea or citrus in the product. On this excursion from Kanazawa, join the head brewer on a private guided tour through the facilities, including the hop fields, and learn about the secrets of the craft. Enjoy an expansive range of samples at the brewery, and then enjoy taking a long, leisurely stroll through the streets of Yuwaka Onsen, basking in the beauty of the town's scenery.
