Great tour with Mi and Kazuki in Takayama today! After a quick skim of the Sunday market understanding the local fresh produce we were off to a Sake brewery ! We had a concise and clear brief about Sake production and a more extended introduction to the varieties of Sake and how to make an informed selection. We were the let loose to taste the different types to select our preferred brew! Of course my wife and I disagreed on preference except that unpasteurised Sake had a full flavour. Next Miso, that ubiquitous stock consumed daily in many Japanese homes. The preparation process was explained (made from dried fish not vegetables. Followed by the all important tasting - delicious! A stroll through another Sunday food market and we tasted, fermented garlic, persimmon, chestnut biscuits, wonderful ginger and more! Followed by perfect beautiful sugar sweets in the form of cherry blossom. What a treat! All finished with a coffee in a local cafe - perfect. We highly recommend this tour - thank you Mi and Kazuki.

Marino was a great guide and her English was excellent. She was keen to impart her enthusiasm for the area as someone who had moved to Hida herself. She made the small group interact in a fun way and ensured that we all enjoyed the Sake and tasty morsels on the tour. Plus she indicated where the good craft shops could be found for those looking for quality souvenirs. All great fun!

While our guide was super nice and we learned some new things, we were expecting a food tour where you ate more local foods. This wasn't it. We made a stop at a coffee shop, had a cup of miso in a shop where anyone could have a cup of miso, tasted sake in a shop where anyone could taste the sake and tried one type of sesame snack food. We had intentionally skipped breakfast because we thought we'd be eating like on other food tours we'd gone on in other countries, where there was more substantial food. The guide also took our photo at the bridge coming into the old town and said it would be emailed to us, but we never received anything. So a bit disappointing for the price.
