It seems that "kunugi" leads to "bitterness"

Original Text

It is a temple of the Tendai sect with a history of more than 1300 years and is also the 8th temple of the Mogami Sacred Ground. The ancestor is a missionary master and has a statue outside. The principal image is the statue of Gyoki Bodhisattva. In the back of the premises, "Fudo Myoo Sacred Ground No. 1 Sofukuin" is also built. Before that, the old tree of Takano Tsubo given by Yoshimune Tokugawa was well maintained. The name of the temple is said to be derived from the planting of six cherry trees. "Kunugi" ＝ It's a swanky word called "Bitterness".
