Nagano Ishii Miso, Kalahating Araw na May Gabay na Paglilibot sa Pagkain

I’m so happy I booked this. It was a fascinating insight into an area I have little knowledge of. We were lucky and honoured to have Mr. Ishii himself, the current President and 6th Generation conducting the tour. The Miso tasting meal at the end of the tour in their Restaurant was probably the best meal of my entire trip, packed full of incredible flavours and contrasts. Anyone wanting to do this tour should skip breakfast so they can make the most of it. Arigato Gozaimasu 😀

Napakalalim na karanasan para sa isang mahilig sa red miso. Sulit ang package kung magagamit mo ang shirt at apron! Ngunit para sa akin, mas gusto ko na lang ang miso at pagkain. Sa kabila nito, ito ay isang napakasarap at nakakabusog na pagkain. 🥰

Had a great experience on the miso tour! The president personally guided us in English and was very knowledgeable. It was really interesting to learn more about their miso-making process and we even got to try a bowl of miso soup made with 3-year-aged miso. There were also gifts and lunch. Overall, it was a lovely experience getting to learn more about how their miso is made and having the chance to taste it too!

Not sure if it was intended but my tour guide was the miso company’s CEO who spoke great english. Lunch was really nice, all the items were made with miso. At the end you also get a bag of goodies: a shirt, a jar of their 3 year aged miso, etc. Definitely check it out if you are in Matsumoto.

This is a tour where you arrive yourself. It is very informative as it is run by a 6th generation family member who speaks great English and who knows the science and art of miso very well. The tour took just over 30 minutes and was followed by a delicious lunch. We were also given show bags as a bonus- Im not sure whether that always happens or whether it was because it was New Year. Highly recommend- we went to art gallery beforehand which is 5 min walk.

you can take this tour for free, but with this experience you get what was one of the best meals I had, where you can try different misos, and a bag full of goodies (with miso of course) to take home.

I had a wonderful experience joining this tour. The tour guide who is the current CEO of the miso brewery explained to the guests about miso. After the guide, i had lunch featuring the miso that they had crafted in the warehouse. Totally recommend!

This was our favorite part of our visit to Matsumoto. The tour was informative, easy to understand and so interesting. We started analyzing and comparing every miso soup we had on the rest of our trip after this. haha The lunch was delicious in a lovely setting. Highly recommend!

Ang tour guide, na siyang may-ari ng pabrika, ay napakahusay magsalita ng Ingles at napakalinaw sa kanyang pagpapaliwanag. Ang pagkain na hinain ay masarap. Talagang irerekomenda ko ito sa sinumang gustong malaman ang tungkol sa miso at tikman ang pagkain.

got lost on the way to the factory and was late. was hoping to just join the lunch. but they very kindly gave me the tour of the factory. a good experience and thank you so much for still letting me in.
