Immerse yourself in Kyoto’s preservation culture through a private experience beyond a simple “Japanese plum wine workshop.” While umeshu is often translated as Japanese plum wine, the Japanese ume fruit differs from Western plums—more aromatic, tart, and rooted in seasonal traditions. In collaboration with CHOYA UME STUDIO Kyoto Sanjo, you will craft your own umeshu (or non-alcoholic ume syrup), tasting different ume varieties, sugars, and base liqueurs to create a personalized blend. Unlike wine, umeshu is steeped and matured—an expression of patience central to Japanese food culture. What sets this tour apart is the pairing experience at Nishiki Market, “Kyoto’s Kitchen.” You will explore traditional pickling techniques—salted and lactic-fermented vegetables—and select flavors that best complement your handcrafted umeshu once it matures at home. More than a tasting, this experience offers insight into ume, Kyoto’s pickling heritage, and the art of preserving seasonality.

What sets this tour apart is its flexibility and focus on everyday local culture. Guests choose the area they want to explore—Meieki, Sakae, Kanayama, or Osu—so the experience matches their interests and mood, rather than following a fixed route. The tour begins by listening to guests’ preferences. Based on that and the selected area, a local guide chooses two nearby bars that residents actually visit after work, offering an authentic look at Nagoya’s food and drinking culture. Food and drinks are included at each stop, allowing guests to relax and enjoy the evening without worrying about costs. Instead of a typical bar crawl, this tour emphasizes connection to the neighborhood and the rhythms of daily life in Nagoya.
