Nousaku 100% Tin Sake Cup Set (2 Sake Cups, 1 Katakuchi Small)

This is a set of two sake cups (katakuchi and guinomi) made from 100% genuine tin (honsuzu) in Takaoka, a region renowned for its arts and crafts.

It is said that drinking sake from a tin sake cup gives it a mellower, more delicious taste.

100% tin is soft, so with a little force you can bend it and enjoy creating your own shape.

It also has the ability to absorb impurities, preventing water and other liquids from spoiling.

These cups are made by Takaoka-based foundry manufacturer Nousaku, using the traditional method of green sand casting, with most processes being done by hand.

They are perfect for celebratory occasions or as a gift.
