  • The hammered surface's luster and the cup's presence are the best of the best.

    This sake cup is made by hammering molten tin into a sheet and then hammering it out using the hammering technique.

    A thick plate is hammered out, and the surface is created by hammering without shaving. Because it is handmade, the hammered character is unique, and no two are alike.

    Please try this tin sake cup, which is said to go well with Japanese sake

Characteristics of Tin

Tin has a history of being treated for more than 500 years as a special material suitable for purification and preservation of water since ancient times, as it is believed to have properties that make water resistant to decay.

In recent years, sake breweries, toji (master brewers), and brewers of sake have been attracting attention for their tin cups, which "allow sake to taste mellower. It is believed that the action of the tin softens the messy taste of the fusel oil produced during the brewing process. It is attracting attention as an item for enjoying sake from breweries, sake shops, and ryotei (Japanese-style restaurants) alike.

Seiga-do's tin products are mainly manufactured as sake cups. Please enjoy the sake cups with sake, which have a form that fits comfortably in your hand and tension and luster that can only be achieved by forging and beating the tin repeatedly.
