Highlights
In Hiroshima—a city known for Japanese sake, traditional calligraphy brushes, and a story of peace—this experience takes place in a historic storehouse at Kamotsuru Sake Brewery’s first brewery in Saijo, a space not normally open to the public. You will practice calligraphy using a special Kumano brush crafted from Hiroshima’s hibaku (survivor) trees, symbolizing resilience and peace. You will complete your own artwork on a shikishi board to take home. A professional calligrapher will write your chosen word or name onto the label of a premium Junmai Daiginjo sake bottle, creating a one-of-a-kind souvenir. The experience includes a guided sake tasting. Premium option: receive your own hibaku tree Kumano brush to take home. Located a short walk from Saijo Station.

About Hiroshima
Hiroshima, on Japan's Seto Inland Sea, is a rebuilt river city whose Peace Memorial Park and museum recall the atomic bombing of 1945.
Hiroshima spreads across the delta of the Ōta River, whose channels, bridges and trams give the city an open feel. The atomic bomb of 6 August 1945 destroyed most of it. The Peace Memorial Park beside the river holds the Atomic Bomb Dome, a ruined building left standing and listed by UNESCO, the Peace Memorial Museum and the Children's Peace Monument.
