Odate Magewappa is a traditional craft made from beautiful Akita cedar.
Akita cedar is considered one of Japan's three most beautiful forests, and has a beautiful, uniform grain and an elegant texture.
Due to the characteristics of wood, heat conduction is gradual, making it difficult for hot items to cool down and for cold items to remain cold.
The Japanese-style sake set, which has a diagonally wrapped Akita cedar design, has an elegant feel that goes well with modern life.
The subtle scent of cedar wafts from the plain wood inside, further enhancing the taste of the sake.
Odate's magewappa was designated as a national traditional craft in 1981, and almost all of the manufacturing processes are done by hand in the old-fashioned way. You can feel the precision of the craftsman's handiwork in the beautifully finished Magewappa down to the smallest detail.
