[Wakimoto area, Akune City: Wakimoto Beach and Terashima Munenori Memorial Museum]
Akune and Wakimoto time, woven together by the sea and history
Blessed with calm seas and abundant nature, the Wakimoto region boasts Wakimoto Beach, a shallow sandy beach stretching for approximately 3 kilometers. In summer, it is bustling with swimmers and surfers, and nearby, visitors can enjoy glamping and seasonal harvesting experiences, making it a perfect place for extended stays surrounded by nature. Furthermore, the Terashima Munenori Memorial Museum, a renovated former home of local hero Terashima Munenori, offers a glimpse into the legacy of his role in supporting Japan's modernization.

[Kōtokuji, a specialty shop for bamboo shochu]
A mysterious bamboo shochu with no stopper or lid.
"Kōtokuji," a specialty bamboo shochu shop, seals its shochu in the nodes of Moso bamboo from Kagoshima, a region boasting the largest bamboo forest area in Japan, using a proprietary method. The bamboo's components dissolve into the shochu, resulting in a milder flavor with less of the typical sweet potato smell. Because natural bamboo is used, the shelf life is only one month. Order from their online shop to match the day you plan to drink it.
<Featured photos>
1. "Satsuma Okina" 5 go (5,000 yen), "Atsuhime" 3 go (4,000 yen) (25%)
2. Arrives in a special gift box with a handle.
3. When drinking the shochu, make three holes in the bottle with the included ice pick.
4. Won the Grand Prix at the Fukuoka Gift Show and the Grand Prize at the Tokyo Gourmet Show.
5. You can optionally add a name or message (+2500 yen)
