Doburoku is the Japanese word for a thick home brew made from rice. It is only brewed and sold in certain rural communities; zoning and other regulations limit the supply.
In Niigata Prefecture, devastated by a massive earthquake a few years ago, several local farmers have remodeled their toppled farmhouses into no-frill inns featuring the potent brew and regional cuisine.
Do you have such a local brew from your country? Many rural areas of Japan are begging for residents, accompanying investment, and in some cases homesteaders to sustain these beautiful regions of Japan.
