Awamori Sakagura JOY

Awamori Sakagura JOY is a dining bar located in Nago City, northern Okinawa. The bar is run by the manager who is an Awamori Meister.
A variety of bottles are aligned in front of the counter, including Awamori, a representative  distilled alcohol of Okinawa. Most of the dishes served here are Okinawan foods that are best matches for an alcohol like Awamori. This is also the perfect place to enjoy an evening during your Okinawa trip. One of their popular dishes is the collagen-rich fried ‘tebichi’( "pig foot" in Okinawa dialect). Its combination between the crispy coating and gelatinous inside present a delicious contrast of texture.
One of the features of this dining bar is that you can enjoy Koshu , which is Awamori that is aged for many years. Koshu has a mild taste and rich aroma that is unlike younger bottles of Awamori, and I highly recommend trying it out.
