Fujiwara Bee Farm

*Relocated and reopened in May 2023. It is one of the oldest apiaries in Japan, having been raising and studying honeybees for over 120 years since its establishment in 1901. In addition to the 50 or so types of flower honey always available, the store also sells royal jelly, propolis, pollen, bee pollen, processed honey products, and products using wasp extracts, as well as a very popular honey tasting corner where visitors can taste more than 40 types of honey. Along the mountain stream at the Hayachine trailhead is a honeycomb that has been in existence since the Taisho Era (1912-1926).

Himegami ware Toshian

Approximately 2,000 pieces of ceramics, ranging from household items to works of art, are on display in the exhibition room in his home. His works are characterized by openwork carvings of wild grapes and wisteria, which he made from his experience in metal casting and plaster carving. I am moved by his delicate techniques, including his attempt to explore unexplored fields using curved lines like candlesticks.

Gomaibashi Winery

Gomaibashi Winery is located in Iwate, which is known for its apple production, and makes wine using apples. Through thorough fruit selection, you can enjoy a very clear apple taste. In addition to apple wine, he also sells dozens of wines from Australia, which he studied winemaking and uses as the starting point for his own winemaking. In addition, you can sample apple wine in the store, and we also suggest compatibility between wine and food.
