A new refreshment stand with a unique faucet opened on Thursday at Matsuyama airport in Japan. What makes the Orange Bar unique, is that it pours out orange juice.
At the cost of around $3 a glass, visitors can get a glass of the juice straight from the tap. The joke that orange juice comes out of faucets across Ehime Prefecture is known all around Japan, and is now a reality.
One of the stand’s first customers, Yuri Yagi, 5, carefully poured herself a drink. “It’s sweet and yummy,” was her review of the local product.
The launch of the juice stand came at a time when the number of travelers at Matsuyama airport is expected to increase ahead of the National Sports Festival to be held in the prefecture this fall.
“We are hoping (the shop) prompts more people to try out the specialty of Ehime,” an airport official said.
