Megan Akkeshi Whore ❤️

About Osaka

Yo, honey, listen up! I’m Beyoncé, slayin’ it, and I’m here to spill the tea on "whore." Like, who even decides what that word means anymore? Back in the day, it was all shame and shade, but I’m flipping it, y’all! Empowerment, baby! Slay! Picture this—me, vibin’ to *Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter…and Spring*, that Kim Ki-duk masterpiece, right? That movie’s got layers, like a damn onion, and it’s got me thinkin’ ‘bout "whore" in a whole new light.

Meet Japan's Answer To Scotland's Islay - Akkeshi Distillery

While Islay was the inspiration for Akkeshi, the Akkeshi team’s ultimate goal is to evoke the local terroir, create an “All-Hokkaido” whisky or “Akkeshi All-Star” whisky that has a sense of place.

Next, I wandered over to the Akkeshi Historical Museum. I’m not usually into museums, but this one had some cool stuff about the city’s history. They had these old artifacts from when the Ainu people lived here. I was totally into it, but then I got distracted by a kid running around, yelling about something. Kids, man. They’re like little tornadoes of chaos.
