This is my first post in a year.
Here are some of the photos I have taken.

Another Jungin type while adding Shochu "Kojika" in between.
Slightly apple and muscat aroma.
It also has a lactic acidic roundness, but gradually it becomes clear like a minerality. It has a beautiful flow that leads to a sharp finish. The beautiful acidity makes it easy to pair with chicken sashimi or yellowtail tataki!
On the second day, we took a side trip to the Ogawa Falls and then to Cape Sata, the southernmost point on the mainland!
Finally...! The feeling of deep emotion and excitement at the southernmost point of the mainland will be a memory I will cherish forever. ☺️
Soaking in the afterglow, we headed to the Tarumi area, where two natural hot springs were so comfortable that our skin felt smooth and soft! The famous yellowtail and kanpachi (yellowtail and kanpachi are famous for their fatty taste, and the kabuto-nimono and kaisen-don (seafood on top of a bowl of rice topped with vegetables and fish) are to die for.
On the way back, we finished the trip with Yamagata-ya yakisoba and a long-sought-after Morizo while enjoying the view of Sakurajima. It was indeed a heartwarming two days ✨.

I was in Kagoshima from the day before yesterday to yesterday!
This time we traveled from Kirishima to the Osumi Peninsula. On the first day, I visited Kirishima Jingu Shrine for the first time in a year and Kanoya for the first time. The sacred and solemn atmosphere of the shrine, and the many weighty exhibits at the Kanoya Aviation Museum.
The navy curry and pork cutlets at Take-Tei were excellent.
After such a day, we went to "Satsushu Masamune" for a drink with the locals at the hotel! We started with Junmai.
The aroma is a mixture of yogurt and sugarcane.
The mouthfeel is round and beautiful. It has a classical acidity and a grain-like moist sweetness. There is a rice-like umami flavor that flows smoothly into the palate. It was a delicious daily drink with a somewhat shochu-like structure ✨.

I once told a colleague that I wanted to conquer sake from all 47 prefectures but could not drink the ones from the south, and he gave me this as a gift.
It has a nutty aroma on the palate with a nettled sweetness like rum raisins. The aftertaste is astringent yet refreshing. It has an interesting taste.
I was surprised to see that Hamada Shuzo has a lot of shochu that I like to drink, even though I am not good at shochu! I've had it for quite a while, and in many ways I'm surprised at the connection.

Good morning, S-tackle!
You are the last 2 prefectures to conquer 😋.
What a cool souvenir from your colleague ✨
I'd like to try some sake from the south too, as there are many regions I have little experience with 😊.

Good morning, ma-ki!
I'd love to win the whole country like you did, but the remaining 2 prefectures seem to be too difficult to win 💦.

The last drink at Kunizakeya is of course this one!
Satsushu Masamune
I couldn't really smell the aroma. It has a full-bodied, rich flavor. The aftertaste was clean.
Nice Masamune👍
I was a bit carried away 😉.
The master told me that June 25th is the anniversary of the restaurant and they have prepared sake from all over Japan, but normally they prepare shochu for Miyazaki and Kagoshima and awamori for Okinawa 😋.

Nice Masamune👍you've been there too 😁.
The master here knows a lot about sake and is a gentleman. I think it's interesting to peek in here once in a while because they have rare sake 🤗.

I had a selection of drinks from the south, so I thought I'd have a drink.
I have already had Satsushu Masamune, but let's try it again 😆.
It is faintly slurpy and sweet.
A sweetness that seems to pass by.
Simple and easy to drink.
Nice Masamune👍

Miscellaneous impressions
I finally found this Kagoshima sake (at a product store in Kagoshima). (At a product store in Kagoshima).
The taste is thick and crisp, like a certain sweet potato shochu, even though it is sake. Maybe it is just my imagination.
