This is a museum utilizing the Sagawa Soy Sauce Storehouse, which carries on the traditional production method of Yanai City's specialty "Kanro Shoyu" (sweet soy sauce). Enticed by the savory aroma of soy sauce drifting through the streets of white-walled buildings, once you step inside, you can observe heavy brewing vats lined up and feel firsthand how the soy sauce is slowly and carefully aged over time. Kanro Shoyu is a luxurious item made through a time-consuming process called "double-brewing," and you can learn the secret of its deep body and umami. You can also enjoy tastings and sweets made with soy sauce, making it a hidden gem filled with intellectual joy and deliciousness where you can touch the "Art of Seasoning" that supports the Japanese dining table.
