Description
Hiroshima is counted as one of Japan's three major sake breweries. However, the sake industry is in a predicament due to COVID-19 pandemic and a series of natural disasters. The long-established sake brewery in Higashi-Hiroshima, led by Miho Imada, a female toji (master brewer) who was selected as one of “The BBC’s 100 Women of 2020”, is no exception. We followed the days of preparation of "new sake" that began in such adversity.
