たぬきの新しい酒瓶Kamesei's Tanuki has a new Sake Bottle

March 11, 2009: 亀清旅館 Kamesei Ryokan

亀清の中庭のたぬきは昔から酒の瓶と一緒に立ていました。当館ではせっかっく姨捨正宗の酒を扱っているから、その便があればいいナと思っていました。打ちの担当者に頼んでみましたので探してくれました。蔵からこの格好いい瓶が出てきたそうでし、今日、持ってきてくれました。喜んで、たぬきの隣に飾っておきました。
Most establishments that sell sake in Japan have a tanuki statue. He's kind of a good luck charm, and is usually made holding a ledger and a bottle of sake. The tanuki here in our Naka-niwa garden has always had a sake bottle at his side, but I thought it would be most appropriate if the bottle were from our local sake brewer, Obasute Masamune. I asked our rep, and he found this cool bottle in their warehouse and brought it for us. So I proudly displayed it next to our tanuki.
