Know before you buy
This set is designed specifically for cold sake. Because the glass is handblown and delicate, it is not recommended for use with hot liquids, which could cause thermal shock.
Due to the delicate, handblown nature of the glass, we recommend hand washing these pieces with mild soap to preserve their clarity and structural integrity.
The carafe holds 12.3 ounces, while each of the two ochoko cups holds 1.6 ounces. This ratio allows you to pour approximately four full cups per carafe, making it ideal for sharing.
Because each piece is individually handblown, there will be slight variations in the glass patterns and shapes. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the craftsmanship and ensure that your specific set is one-of-a-kind.
Since the carafe is glass, it will not insulate the sake like a ceramic or metal vessel. We recommend chilling your sake in the refrigerator before pouring it into the carafe, or placing the carafe in a bowl of ice if you need to keep it cold for an extended period.
