杉玉
 杉玉は新酒ができたことを告げるもので、秋に吊される当初は緑色だが、徐々に茶色に変化していく。杉玉の色の変化を見て日本酒の熟成具合を知ることが出来る。熟成の進んだ日本酒は濃厚でその甘みを増していく。

Ise Jingu - 伊勢神宮


伊勢神宮
 伊勢神宮は公式には”伊勢”をつけずに”神宮”と呼ばれる。伊勢神宮は、皇室の祖神である天照大神が奉られている内宮と、農業と産業の神である豊受大御神が奉られている外宮からなる。
Ise Jingu.
 Jingu is often introduced in the dictionary as "Ise Jingu." However, the official name is "Jingu" without "Ise." Jingu is principally composed of the Naiku where Amaterasu Omikami, the ancestral kami of the Imperial Family, is worshiped, and Geku where Toyouke Omikami, the kami of agriculture and industry, is worshiped.
