The Gura kiln specialises in making traditional cups, jugs and accessories for drinking Sake and Shochu and are based in Gifu, Japan. Guinomi (ぐい呑) are generally larger in size tha n o-choko with a heavier feel. The larger size of the guinomi impacts the flavour of the sake served. A larger amount of sake can be held inside with more surface area and volume to release the sakes aroma. This helps capture aromatic components for longer before they are blown away by currents of air. Both of these qualities allow the taster to better appreciate the aromas in sake. Slight irregularities in size, glaze and texture reflect the artisan nature of the product and are embraced. Show more
