About Takara Sake Museum

The Takara Sake Museum, run by Takara Sake USA in Berkeley, presents the making of sake. Visitors can look closely at the tools early brewery workers used and the methods they relied on. The museum sets older techniques beside current production technology, showing how each brewing step has been kept while equipment has changed. A booking option is offered online for visits.
