Tenugui, made of cotton kimono scraps, were commonly used during the Edo period (1603-1868). Coming from the words te (hand) and nuguu (to wipe), the tenugui was originally worn as an accessory during Shinto rituals for centuries.

These Wakatake Onikoroshi (demon slayer) tenugui are imprinted with a phrase about the founder, Jubee, making sake that could slay a demon, make a woman cry (in a good way) and allow the Wakatake brand to flourish.

Tenugui are great for wrapping sake bottles, to use as towels in baths and in the kitchen, or to use as a bandana. They are intentionally thin and easy to hand wash and hang dry, and consist of a fine weave that feels nice on your skin.
