Lots of fruit liqueurs

Jam, jam, jam, jam...

Enough noodles to last a few years

I don't rightly know what some of these are

Sauces, dressings, and pickled cabbage, I think

Teas and juices

Of course there's lots of alcohol, be it spirits...

Specialties of the town

More dressings and condiments

This is what the shop looks like from outside

A little way from the centre of Kusatsu, across the road from the Baelz Memorial Hall which commemorates the resort's founder, Kusatsu Farmers' Shop sells a huge range of locally produced food and drinks. There are liqueurs, wines, beers and spirits; cakes, cookies and jams made from a variety of fruits; pickles, sauces and other condiments, beef jerky, bacon jerky, and much, much more. Some of it I couldn't identify, but a lot of the goods are labeled in English as well as Japanese. It's a really good place to pick up gifts for friends and family, and some treats for yourself too.
