Eiheiji Town in Fukui Prefecture is offering two special gifts to commemorate the 20th anniversary of its merger: a premium daiginjo sake called "Kokuryu Tokoshie" from Kokuryu Sake Brewery, and a tour ticket to experience a special facility. These gifts will be available for a limited time from December 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026.

1. Black Dragon: Eternity
"Kokuryu Tokoshie" is a special sake made by hand-selecting the finest daiginjo sake brewed by Kokuryu Sake Brewery, and aging it for a long time in the optimal environment of ice temperature. The long aging process has mellowed the gorgeous aroma and flavor, adding gentleness, mellowness, depth and umami, resulting in an elegant and complex sake.

2. [Limited to 10 pairs] Black Dragon Tokoshie + ESHIKOTO Garyu Building Tour (for pairs)
This extremely valuable special tour (limited to 10 groups) allows you to experience the world of the brewery, and includes not only the famous sake "Ei," but also a tour of the normally closed "Garyu-to" building and a tasting experience.

The refined beauty of the Garyu-to building resonates quietly with the Japanese climate

Experienced staff will guide you through the Garyu-to, a sparkling sake storage facility designed by British architect Simon Conder (normally off-limits), located within the ESHIKOTO complex, managed by Ishidaya Nizaemon Co., Ltd., the parent company of Kokuryu Brewery. It is a special experience that allows you to experience the passion of the craftsmen, the delicate brewing process, and the beauty of the space that harmonizes with the Japanese climate. After the tour, you can enjoy a tasting of limited edition sake at the directly managed Ishidaya ESHIKOTO store, a rare opportunity that will leave you with a deep aftertaste that will delight all five senses.
