New Ways to Sip and Serve Sake

We have a couple new wares on our shelves that are perfect for the next time you serve sake: First up, the Sake Gumi carafe. You don't have to be a member of our sake club to procure this porcelain tokkuri featuring the Sake Gumi logo. This carafe has a small pouring spout (a style that's hot in Japan right now) to prevent dripping and a narrow neck to keep heat from escaping. We recommend using the Sake Gumi Carafe to serve rich junmai or honjozo sake. Just place the sake-filled tokkuri in a pot of hot water for 5 minutes, then enjoy! We're in love with our new Glass Sake Cups with Foot made by Toyo-Sasaki. Use these dainty glasses the next time you drink a lovely daiginjo or ginjo sake. The bell shape makes it easy for sipping and enjoying the brew's flavor and aroma. These glass cups can be used for sipping other spirits as well!
