Posted By: Bill H Sat, Dec 27, 2014 I have no idea how to pronounce it, but the kanji 神材醸 would read down literally as "Spiritual Brew" or perhaps "Sacramental Wine". The characters tend to connote a fermented beverage, possibly sweet, used to celebrate a Shinto or other religious rite. Japanese expertise will be needed for the final word. |
