Late SummerAsajizake 麻地酒 (あさじざけ 朝生酒, 浅茅酒) asa jizake
"Hemp" local rice wine
"burried in the earth", tsuchikaburi 土かぶり（つちかぶり）
JIZAKE, a local rice wine.
This is a speciality from the old Tango and Higo provinces (Oita and Kumamoto in Kyushu), the old Hiji Han 日出藩（ひじはん）. Prepared in winter, partly with glutinous rice (mochigome) like amazake. The barrels are then burried in the earth in a hemp field until next summer.
Some legends of the origin of this drink have this to say:
Once a young monk burried some sweet amazake to drink it secretly later, and it turned out to gain in flavor over time. The lord of the domain heared of this sweet drink and made it a speciality of his area.
This famous drink was even presented to the Shogun in Edo.

Amazake, ama zake 甘酒 (あまざけ, 醴 )
"over night drink", hitoyazake 一夜酒（ひとよざけ）
vendor of sween ama zake, amazake uri 甘酒売（あまざけうり）
shop selling sweet ama zake, amazakeya 甘酒屋（あまざけや）
Made from fermented glutinous rice gruel and yeast, letting it ferment for about six to eight hours. Its alcohol content is quite low, therefore it is a favorite with the ladies of my neighbourhood. They also use the
amazake mix we can by at the store to make soup or boil chicken and vegetables in it.
The basic recipe for amazake has been used for hundreds of years. Kōji is added to cooled whole grain rice causing enzymes to break down the carbohydrates into simpler unrefined sugars. As the mixture incubates, sweetness develops naturally.
Amazake can be used as a dessert, snack, natural sweetening agent, baby food, salad dressing or smoothie. The traditional drink (prepared by combining amazake and water, heated to a simmer, and often topped with a pinch of finely grated ginger) was popular with street vendors, and it is still served at inns and teahouses. Many Shinto shrines provide or sell this in the New Year. In the 20th century, an instant version became available.
Amazake is believed to be very nutritious, with no additives, preservatives, added sugars or salts. Outside of Japan, it is often sold in health food shops.
