Susami Sushi Kiri
Wakayama Kumano Kodo Susami
A Delicious Hidden BASE You Almost Don't Want to Share
I was excited from beginning to end at this restaurant. I don't know how many times I exclaimed, "Delicious!" as I understood why the celebrities in New York were charmed by the chef's sushi and dishes. The rare and local sakes paired perfectly with the sushi. The lively conversation with the owner, having a somewhat rock-n-roll spirit, added to the enjoyment. Next time, I want to bring my family to enjoy the experience.

COCO FARM＆WINERY
Tochigi Utsunomiya
A BASE Where You Can Relax With Delicious Wine Born Out of a Spirit of Caring for People
As I sipped a glass of delicious wine while admiring the vineyards, I was embraced by a deep sense of calm and relaxation that made me wonder if I was really in Japan. What began as a place built in hopes of helping students with special needs eventually transformed into one of Japan's leading wineries. I saw many people participating in their winery tours for just 500 yen.

HYAKUSHUN Sake Brewery Kosaka Shuzojo
Gifu Mino
A BASE to Find Japanese Sake from Udatsu-No-Agaru Machinami
This is a traditional sake brewery that has been around since the Edo period. The building is also from the Edo period, and I had fun just gazing at the historical interior. The sake "Hyakusyun" and "Sanyaho" are excellent products. They are brewed with the famous Nagara River water, selected as one of the best 100 waters in Japan, along with the climate and high-quality rice suitable for sake brewing. It is recommended to buy your souvenirs here.

Sera Winery
Hiroshima Sera
A BASE Where You Will Feel a Bit More Grown-Up with Wine Born from Deep Local Love
If you're a wine lover, I don't think you'll be able to resist going to this winery. Before looking for your favorite wine, I recommend joining their winery tour first, to see how much effort they put into making their wines. I don't usually drink much, so I bought a pouch-type wine equivalent to about a glass of wine. It was light and easy to carry and made it possible for me to enjoy the taste of Sera wine in the comfort of my own home.

A BASE Where Families Can Fully Immerse in Nature and Get Souvenirs from All Over Tochigi
This Michi-no-Eki (roadside atation) is full of nature and when you come in spring, you can even try your hand at digging bamboo shoots. Would you believe that this place also houses a brewery where they make craft beer and you can try it straight from the tap? I forgot it was a Michi-no-Eki as I sat back and relaxed with a drink. There are also all sorts of delicious specialties from all over Tochigi available here, so I felt that even if I had several stomachs, it wouldn't be enough to try them all!
