Takimoto Liquor Store

Takimoto Liquor Store (（株）タキモト)  is a five minute walk from Gojo Station on the Karasuma subway line, facing Rokujo-dori. The shop is overflowing with sake not just from Kyoto, but from all over the country. They keep the quality by using huge refrigerators and rooms kept at low temperatures so you can buy sake in its best condition, something that you can only enjoy at a specialty shop like this one.

They choose sake based on your tastes regardless of brand name, so this is a recommended spot for beginners. (Via WOW! Japan)
