![[From Yoka Guide] ~ Beware of ashfall when sightseeing in Kagoshima ~ An eruption has been continuing at the summit crater of Sakurajima's Minamidake mountain from the evening of May 5th to the morning of the 15th. If you are sightseeing in Kagoshima city, please do not forget to bring an umbrella as rain is forecast from the evening of the 16th to tomorrow and the day after. An umbrella can also protect you from ash. We also recommend checking the weather forecast for the Kagoshima region to see the hourly wind direction and areas where ashfall is expected on Sakurajima. *As of the morning of the 16th, ashfall has been seen in Kagoshima City, Aira City, and other areas, and is expected to spread to Kirishima City, Hioki City, and the northern part of the prefecture. #Sakurajima #SakurajimaEruption #YokaGuideKagoshima #YokaGuideKagoshima #KagoshimaCity #KagoshimaTourism #Aira #Kirishima](https://yokaguide.com/cms/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed-pro/img/placeholder.png)
Good shochu comes from good soil, and good soil is found in bright rural areas.
Kirishimacho Distillery is located in Kirishima, surrounded by beautiful nature, and uses abundant groundwater to make shochu using traditional earthenware pots. In addition to holding 15-20 minute tours of the shochu making process (free of charge) at any time, you can also sample selected brands at the shop or try your hand at hand-writing an original, one-of-a-kind label on your own shochu.
