Features of Shochu Server 1
Shigarayaki-ware shochu server, one of the six oldest kilns in Japan
Shigarayaki ware, known for its raccoon dog figurines, is one of Japan's six oldest kilns and is made in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. Characterized by its high fire resistance and coarse clay texture, this pottery is often used for large vessels such as earthenware pots.
Since Shigarayaki ware is a traditional craft with a long history, it was used in the old days as utensils for the tea ceremony, and today a variety of items, not only tableware, but also ornaments and small objects, are made using the Shigaraki ware technique.
Among ceramic servers, many of which have a heavy impression, this is a gem with a light design and a modern finish.

A pattern of ten grasses (tokusa). Warm and cozy expression.
Both the body and lid of the shochu server have an earthen texture and a warm look. The appearance conveys the solid thickness that is typical of Shigarayaki ware.
The vertical lines are a pattern of ten grasses (tokusa), which have been popular in Japan since ancient times. Tokusa is a plant that grows straight up, like a stem. It is a plant that neither flowers nor leaves, but it is said that if you polish gold with the leaves of the ten grasses, the luster of the gold will increase, and thus it is considered an auspicious pattern that brings in money.
A pattern of ten grasses (tokusa), finished with two-color lines, has a very modern look while still having a Japanese feel.

For a happy time! Notice the far-infrared ray effect!
A server that holds a generous amount of shochu is useful for home parties or when you want to share shochu with several people. It saves you the trouble of making a glass of water every time you want another glass, and it is very easy to pour without lifting anything heavy like a pitcher, just by turning the lever.
Ceramic has the property of emitting far-infrared rays, which has the added benefit of mellowing the flavor of the water if it is placed in the server. This is also the principle behind the use of pottery "kame" in the production of shochu, which is used to mature the shochu to make it taste better.
It can be used not only for shochu but also as a water server. If you put binchotan together with water, it also works as a water purifier. The countless holes in the binchotan act like a filter, absorbing chlorine and impurities from the tap water and making it mellow to the palate.

Plenty of capacity! Wooden pedestal can be assembled
The server has a generous 1 liter capacity. Its cylindrical shape and wide spout allow you to fill it with shochu and water without stress. The bottom of the server is flat, which gives it a high sense of stability.
The wooden pedestal, with its dark color and rich taste, is assembled by crossing and inserting. It is easy to set up and can be stored slimly when not in use.

Lever is bi-directional! Exquisite flow rate!
The lever is bidirectional and can be turned left or right to release water. This eliminates the problem of turning the lever in the wrong direction and not being able to shut off the water or alcohol.
The perfect flow rate, neither too large nor too small, is also the secret to its ease of use. It is easy to pour into a large glass, of course, but it is also easy to adjust when pouring into a small glass.
Since these are used for enjoyable happy times, it is nice to know that they are designed to be comfortable for the user.
