紅茶専門店ディンブラごあいさつ

Tea Specialty Store Dimbula Greetings

Nice to meet you.

My name is Taika Isobuchi, the second generation of "Tea Specialty Shop Dimbura".

My father passed away in February, and I would like to apologize in advance for the long time it has taken to take over.

Let me tell you a little story about me.

I used to come to my father's workplace when I was little.

I have hyperesthesia, especially hearing and olfactory hypersensitivity.

Therefore, when I was a junior high school student, I once told my father that I wanted to take over Dimbura when I grew up.

"But think about it, do what you really want to do.

Get a job that makes you happy. ” was strongly opposed by my father.

When I entered high school, I decided to study abroad because I wanted to find an answer to my father's opposition.

I spent my high school years in Australia, and then went to New Zealand to study at university.

After that, I entered a university near my home, and am currently in the fall of my second year of university. While doing various volunteer activities, just when I found my future goals, my father passed away suddenly, and I couldn't sort out my feelings right away.

However, the staff and customers of Dimbula have been watching over us for a long time.

This December marks the 40th anniversary of my father's tea specialty shop, Dimbura.

I will carry on my father's will and do my best from now on.

I would like to create Dimbra that is the same as before and Dimbra that blows a new wind in my own way. I would appreciate it if you could watch over me with warm eyes.

This photo is a memory of when I went to Sri Lanka with my father. September 21, 2019 Black Tea Specialty Shop Dimbula 2nd Generation Taika Isobuchi

本日2023年4月30日にお店にお邪魔しました。鎌倉、藤沢にお店があったときと同様、明るくて、ホッと出来るいいお店でした。もちろん、紅茶も最高でした。お父様には、本にサインを頂いたり、鎌倉の時は紅茶をつくっているところを、カウンター越しでかぶり付きで見せて頂いたり、決して良い客ではなかったけど、いつも優しくご対応頂きました。さて、お父様のお言葉ですけど、私には愛情にしか聞こえませんでした。一番は泰果さんに幸せになって欲しい。もし自分の仕事を娘に引き継がせて、本当にやりたい事を我慢させたら申し訳ない。また仕事だから覚悟をもって欲しい。そんな感じかなと想像しました。今の時代、父親は子に対して、本当は仕事を継いで欲しいけど、継いでくれとは恥ずかしくて(本当は何も恥ずかしい事は無いのに)言えないものです。ですから、お父様は天国でスキップするくらい喜んでいると思います。
最後になりますが、一客が勝手な事を申し上げまして申し訳ありませんでした。お気に触るようなことが有りましたら平にご容赦ください。ディンブラと二代目店主泰果さんの益々のご清栄をお祈りしています。これからのディンブラが楽しみです。
