Some of the best spots to go for a drink in Kagoshima are tucked away in the upper floors of otherwise fairly nondescript inner-city buildings. Bar Suke is no exception. Climb the concrete staircase to the second floor of the Yuzuki Building and you will find a plain wooden door with a red doormat, neatly flanked by two small piles of salt to ward away evil spirits as per the Japanese custom. Inside is one of Kagoshima’s most stylish bars and some of the most gorgeous and expensive drinkware in Japan.

This time we speak with our good friends Daisuke and Yusuke about their impressive collection of valuable glassware, the reasons why people come to visit their bar, and their hopes to support the development of traditional craftsmanship in the Kagoshima region for the future. Cheers!
