    Ise Kadoya is a long-established teahouse founded in 1575, and now produced local beer that represents Ise such as Shinto Beer and Ise Kadoya Pale Ale. The directly-managed store is located immediately outside of Ise Jingu Shrine's outer shrine. They sell sake available for purchase as souvenirs, and barrel craft draft beer for walk and drink. There is also a set menu where you can drink and compare four different types of local Ise beer, making it a shop beer lovers enjoy themselves. In addition to alcohol, they offer snacks including Niken Chaya Mochi (rice cakes with bean paste filled and dusted in kinako soybean powder) famous from when it was a teahouse, so it is somewhere those who do not drink can come to.

    Mie Ise-shi Ujinakanokiricho 77-2
    "This brewery makes Iseman Shuzo's Okagesama, a sake whose name was inspired by the historic ""Okage-mairi"" mass pilgrimages to the Ise Jingu shrine in the Edo period. Situated in a town which grew up around the shrine and commanding a view of the lush cedar forest on its grounds, the brewery has a shop which sells seishu refined sakes, shochu distilled spirits, liqueurs, and more. The brewery's Ginjo Okagesama, made with underground water from the Isuzu River which flows through the Naiku inner shrine area of the Ise Jingu shrine, is an exquisite ginjo sake which balances dazzling aroma and flavor. Primarily made by hand and in limited quantities, it can only be purchased here at the brewery and at the company's shop in Iseshima. The back of the shop where customers enter is in fact the brewery itself, and it is known as the smallest sake brewery in Japan."

    Mie Ise-shi Asamacho 801-15
    "This pottery studio stands at the foot of Mt. Asama, about which in ancient times it was said that ""a pilgrimage to Ise without visiting Asama is only half a pilgrimage."" Surrounded by abundant natural beauty, the studio makes chawan bowls, yunomi teacups, flower vases, mugs, and other pottery items which easily integrate into everyday life. The studio also conducts pottery making activities every Saturday and Sunday in which participants can receive courteous instruction while creating their very own, one-of-a-kind pottery piece. You can borrow all the tools and equipment you need and the studio will send pieces C.O.D. after they have been fired."

Spread across the eastern side of the Kii Peninsula, Mie prefecture boasts hundreds of kilometers of pretty coastline comprising the oyster-rich Toba city and Shima National Park all the way down to Kumano, a city that marks the beginning of part of the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage, which runs into neighboring Wakayama prefecture. However, Mie is best known for the Ise Jingu Shinto shrine inland, one of the oldest and largest shrines in the country.
