The cup presents a unique texture, typical of craftsmanship. The crystalline type glaze is designed to highlight colour changes under the effect of firing and to create a new perception of colours. It allows complex variations to be achieved without the need to apply multiple layers of glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wider sake cup is designed so that the unique aroma of the sake swirls around you before you taste it. Likewise, when you pour the sake into your mouth, it flows gently over your tongue and spreads to the back and both sides of your tongue, thus conveying the full taste of the sake. The cups used for drinking sake are generally small cylindrical vessels called o-choko or choko, or sakazuki of flatter shapes like wide-mouthed bowls. The smaller the cup, the more often you can pour, thereby showing your honour and reverence each time the glasses empty. This is the main reason why traditional sake cups are so small, in order to allow this ritual to take place as many times as possible when drinking amongst friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you pour the sake into your mouth, it flows gently over your tongue and spreads to the back and both sides of your tongue, thus conveying the full taste of the sake.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NISHIKIDORI 2026","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54111391940941,"sku":"NISVICH25","price":34.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/6438\/8941\/files\/VICH25-s.webp?v=1782227308","url":"https:\/\/www.nishikidori.com\/en\/products\/rare-flat-sake-cup-sakazuki-yuteki-tenmoku","provider":"Nishikidori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
