    大島紬の事が良く理解出来る施設です。 大島紬は生地を染色するので無く、糸自体を染色して色々に染色された絹糸を織り込んで大島紬を作って行くとか。その工程は、最初から製織り製品になるまで41の沢山の工程をへて出来あがるとか-そりや高価なのも納得です。その工程に沿って女性の係員の方が丁寧に説明して頂けます。製織りの工程で、機織しているお婆さんと話をしたところ、40数年此の仕事をしているとか。一番の苦労は...

    Kagoshima Oshima-gun Yamatoson Kuninao 73
    This log cabin-style building facing the Kuninao Coast is both a cafe and plant-based dyeing shop. You can taste the specialties of Yamato Village in an atmosphere where you can fully feel the slower atmosphere of the island. You can also enjoy the taste of nature as the vegetables used in the dishes are from their organic home-grown vegetable garden. The owner is an artist who has had a solo exhibition in New York, and the shop offers dyeing experiences besides exhibiting and selling a variety of plant-based dyed products.

    座敷席もあり子連れでも大丈夫ですが、量が少ないのでオススメしません。一人でやられているようで、デザートを食べに行くならいいと思います。

    Kagoshima Oshima-gun Tokunoshimacho Shirai 474-565
    "This brewery is located in Shirai, Tokunoshima Town, and is surrounded by abundant water and sugar cane fields in an idyllic countryside area. The main ingredient is pure brown sugar, and their mainstay product is ""Shima no Napoleon"" filled with natural spring water. There are also a variety of other brands such as Mikado, aged over a long period of time, as well as plum wine using brown sugar shochu that is rare even in Japan. The young Touji (master brewer), who has inherited the traditional manufacturing method using natural water that flows against hard bedrock containing coral reefs on Tokunoshima, the island of longevity, and select brown sugar, makes the flavor deeper and easier to drink."

    Kagoshima Oshima-gun Yoroncho Chabana 226-1
    "This is the only brewery on Yoron Island that produces Amami brown sugar shochu. It was founded under American military rule in 1947. It draws up groundwater and seawater from Yoron Island and desalinated soft water with a good taste to use for brewing and mixing. The representative brand ""Yusen"" is loved by the locals to the extent that it has also become synonymous with sake from Yoron Island. While mainly 20% ABV, it is also made in 25% and 35% ABV varieties."

Kagoshima Areas

around-area-map

Over 100 active volcanoes across Kagoshima make it one of the Japan's most exciting prefectures. The prefectural capital, Kagoshima city, looks out to one of the prefecture’s most spectacular volcanoes, Sakurajima, an island of its own that can be visited and seen close up or admired from afar, with the promise of breathtaking sunsets complete with frequent puffs of smoke and ash. Down the Satsuma Peninsula, the most southerly part of mainland Japan, waterfalls, sand onsen, and fascinating history await, while Kagoshima's abundance of satsuma imo (sweet potato) provide a wholesome snack as well as one of Japan's favourite drinks - shochu.
