For the foodies, who is a meat lover, Aka beef of Kumamoto is a delicacy to challenge. Unlike other Wagyu (Japanese beef) the meat is considered leaner, but still with the same Wagyu quality. The fact that the grasslands of Kumamoto, certified as a World Agricultural Heritage site in 2013 is another bonus.
