Savour the essence of sake with the Blue Sake Cup. This beautifully handcrafted sake cup comes from the renowned Gura kiln in Gifu, Japan. It was handcrafted by Japanese artisans in guinomi style. These cups are just slightly larger than the traditional o-choko. Their design helps enhance your sake-drinking experience by amplifying the aromas and flavours of sake.

A simple sake cup for an elaborate sake experience

With a 35 ml capacity, this cup offers more surface area. This allows your sake to breathe and release its aromatic components. The added volume also holds the sake’s aroma longer, which helps tasters fully appreciate its nuanced flavours. The next element is its rather heftier design, which follows the guinomi style. It’s made to deliver a tactile sense of balance and tradition in every sip.

Sake drinking made mindful

Each cup is carefully handcrafted while reflecting the dedication and expertise of the Gura kiln artisans. The glaze catches the eye with its serene blue finish, with subtle variations in texture and hue. The natural irregularities in these artisanal sake sets make every cup a unique piece on its own.

While rooted in age-old traditions of sake drinking, the Blue Sake Cup’s design accommodates modern living. Besides its ergonomic form, it can be used in the dishwasher with proper care. Its design makes it a versatile addition to your sake set.
