  1. Awamori

    Awamori is an alcoholic beverage indigenous to and unique to Okinawa, Japan. It is made from long grain indica rice, and is not a direct product of brewing but of distillation. Awamori is typically 60–86 proof, although "export" brands are increasingly 50 proof. Some brands are 120 proof and will catch fire. Awamori is aged in traditional clay pots to improve its flavor and mellowness. The most popular way to drink awamori is with water and ice. When served in a restaurant in Okinawa, it will nearly always be accompanied by a container of ice and carafe of water. Awamori can also be drunk straight, on the rocks, and in cocktails. Traditionally, awamori was served in a kata-kata, a small earthen vessel with a small clay marble inside. The marble would make a distinctive "kata-kata" sound to let people know the vessel was empty, because it was considered rude to pour empty for your drinking companions as awamori was an expensive and treasured drink. These vessels are still found in Okinawa, but the clay marbles are often absent. Another name for awamori used in Okinawa is "island sake", or shima for short.
