On October 8, the first day of the “2011 Tsukiji Autumn Festival” held on October 8 and 9, the “Hatsuho Festival” was held at Namiki Inari Shrine.
After the festival was held at 9:30, the first 300 people celebrated the first ear, "Sasa Sushi" in Kanazawa, a lion village related to the shrine, and "Hakusan Shinsui", a water from the blessings of Sacred Peak Hakusan, which is also the water used for the sacred wine's "Wazo".
In addition, worshipers were served with "chrysanthemum sake", in which edible chrysanthemums were floated on "Manzai Raku <chrysanthemum no Shizuku>" in honor of Shigeyo's festival (chrysanthemum festival).
Chrysanthemum sake is a liquor that soaks the petals of chrysanthemums. It is said that it is good for longevity if you drink morning dew accumulated on chrysanthemums early in the morning. It is said.
It is said that at the Doburoku Festival in Niiname-no-Matsuri on November 23, worshipers will be served with the Nigori sake "Koho" made from rice in the sacred rice field.
The large lion, which was popular with the common people, was burned down in the late Edo period, but was revived in 1990 by a 3,000-year-old large tree by Seiun Chida, a wood sculptor of Kaga lion head living in Hakusan City, Kanazawa. It is 2.4m high and weighs 1t, the best wooden one in Japan. I heard that sacred wine came to be brewed at Kobori Sake Brewery, the brewery of Manzai Raku in Hakusan City.
