One of the highlights is the unique relaxation experience: a barrel sauna made from a repurposed sake cask and a cold bath converted from an actual fermentation tank. Soak in the soft brewing water, then enjoy dinner featuring dishes created in collaboration with a renowned Neapolitan pizza chef, perfectly paired with local sake. As evening falls, gather in the spacious hall lit by lamps crafted from sake bottles, and share drinks and stories with someone special late into the night.
