Tokyo-based photographer and journalist Tony McNicol recently contacted me to share his photo series from Terada Honke Sake Brewery located in Chiba Prefecture. I found these photos beautiful and to me they really conveyed the essence of life at a brewery. It’s hard, honest work, but it’s also not rare to see people smiling and enjoying life. Take a look at this Gallery of Tony’s sake brewery photos from Terada Honke:
