This time, our host visited the town of Ajimu in Usa City, northern Oita Prefecture. Ajimu is one of western Japan’s leading grape producing regions, and the agriculture of the Usa region was recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System in 2013. Blessed by beautiful nature, over 100 varieties of grapes are cultivated here, and there are wineries to explore, too.

First, our host visited Osama no Budou Travel Village Farm. “Osama no Budou” means the “Grape of Kings,” and refers to the Kyoho grape that is ripened on the vine.

Up to 6 kinds of grapes can be enjoyed at the farm between August and September, with grape-picking experiences available. We recommend trying the luxurious Shine Muscat and large-sized Kyoho grape. Both are super juicy and utterly delicious!

Next, our host stopped at Ajimu Winery. Here around 20 types of grapes are grown for wine production.

Within the area, designed to resemble a winery in a forest, you’ll find various facilities such as a shop, brewery, storehouse, and vineyard.
Visitors can also see the wine-making process and explore the extensive vineyards. Additionally, inside the storehouse, there is an exhibition room showcasing vintage glasses, providing an enjoyable experience of glass history.

One of the most popular wines here is their sparkling wine, which has won numerous awards. Be sure to try a few Ajimu Winery brews for yourself in the tasting area!

This video showcases a bunch of ways to have fun in Ajimu, including gorging on tasty Ajimu grapes, which burst with natural sweetness and sourness, and come in large sizes that can be enjoyed as is when ripe; as well as relishing the rich and deep boutiques of wine! Be sure to check it out!
