Episode 10: Daikokuten | Japanese Wine

Daikokuten, one of Japan’s seven lucky gods, is shown holding a wine barrel. He is usually depicted standing on two large bales of rice, holding a magic wishing mallet in his right hand, and a treasure sack over his left shoulder. The treasure sack becomes the wine! The name Daikoku, written in Japanese logograms, which was the trademark of the winery in the early days, can also be seen on wooden crates by the belt-driven grape crusher.
