A special Bincho charcoal shop ★Tanagoro

[Map★] September 27, 2011 12:49

It is a Bincho charcoal shop called Tanagoro, which has been interested in for a long time since it appeared in Ginza 100 points.

 

Speaking of Bincho charcoal, it is only familiar with yakitori and eel.
I’ve never used coal itself.
I often hear about the effects of Bincho charcoal, but where should I buy it?
How to use it ... I just checked it on the homepage because I don't know anything.

Lots of charcoal are sold.
There is a sense of security that there is no doubt if it is a specialty store in Ginza somehow!

By the way, this shop has a bar in the basement, the shop on the second floor and the tea room on the third floor.
It was a very beautiful shop, so I thought it was new,
It is the world's first Bincho charcoal shop opened in 1999.

 

The inside of the shop is displayed very stylishly,
Even though there are weighing and tongs in the corner of the weighing sale, it is somewhat fashionable (laughs).

He explained how it works and how to use it carefully.
For the time being, I am a beginner in Bincho charcoal, so I take a bath or cook rice (*^^*)
On this day, I bought a 50g Bincho charcoal (262 yen) for rice.

A little interesting product is a madler or chopstick rest.
This Bincho charcoal strap is also fashionable for gifts.

Regarding the effects of Bincho charcoal, charcoal contains calcium, iron, magnesium, etc.
It seems that minerals are condensed in a form that is easy to dissolve in water.
There is also a deodorizing effect or a heat effect.


There are a lot of Bincho charcoal objects in the shop.
The interior of the store is completely odorless, and I feel a very purified space.
People are healed by a nice smell, but
I was surprised that odorless was so comfortable!

Bincho charcoal seems to be the home of Kishu, and it was sold by Bicchu Yachozaemon (Bicho).
There are also three major Bincho charcoals in Kochi and Miyazaki, all of which have the Kuroshio current flowing.
I have a glimpse of the greatness of nature.

 

The palm Bincho charcoal is the charcoal of Kishu Minabe-cho,
This town is famous for producing Bincho charcoal and plums.
I also showed you the raw wood of Ubame oak before it became charcoal, but it seems that it is 2 to 30 years.

When I visited for the second time, the manager told me a good story about Bincho charcoal.
I told you a lot, and I took several photos.
I was happy to help you with the interview, and I received such a souvenir!

This is a fragrance-free soap made by kneading medicinal charcoal called charcoal bar.
I feel like absorbing sebum and your skin becomes "slip" ~♪
This is Bincho charcoal, a little bigger than rice. It might be good to decorate it.

 

I became a Bincho charcoal lover (*^^*)
You can also order it at the web shop!

 

Next time is the volume of "Chinese tea in the tea room on the third floor"★
