Chirori Characteristic 2
Tin with excellent properties as a drinking vessel
Tin is a material often used as a "sake cup" that can take full advantage of its properties. One of its advantages is its thermal conductivity. The most attractive feature is that it keeps hot food warm and cold food cold.
This chirori can also be kept at a delicious temperature for a long time by boiling it in hot water for hot sake or chilling it in a wine cooler or other container with ice for cold sake.
Tin also has an ionic effect, which helps to mellow the taste of water and sake by removing impurities. In addition, tin has excellent resistance to rust and moisture. This explains why various types of tin drinking vessels are made, such as sake cups, choko, and tumblers, in addition to chirori.

Detail of Chirori1
Sharp spout and handle that does not get hot
The Chirori's spout is sharply shaped to pour sake smoothly in small quantities. Therefore, even when pouring sake into a small cup with a small capacity, it is thin like a thread and the amount can be adjusted as you pour.
The handle is curved so that it protrudes upward from the body, making it easy to angle and very easy to pour. Another key point is that the different materials are tightly wrapped around each other so that they do not get hot when heated.
The bottom of the bowl is stable and the entire surface is firmly grounded to the tabletop. The brand name "Nosaku" is also engraved on it.
