About this guide
Japan has 1,514 licensed sake production sites (1,602 licensed makers) according to the National Tax Agency's statistical annual report (2024 edition). No open registry publishes all of them with locations, so this guide starts from the breweries documented in Wikidata and Wikipedia and grows from there. Brewery tours, opening hours and product line-ups are not listed here — each brewery's official website is the place to check before visiting.
