[Bizen Ware Sake Set] This Bizen ware sake set is made in the Ibe area of Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture. Perfect for everyday drinking or as a gift, it's sure to satisfy. Each piece is unique, with no two pieces having the same color or pattern. The charm of this handmade set is its richness, and the more you use it, the more it develops its own unique character.
[Make your evening drinking time a special moment] Bizen ware has a dense internal structure, resulting in a high specific heat capacity. This means it has excellent heat retention and heats up and cools down quickly. Its fine irregularities give it high effervescence, producing fine, long-lasting bubbles that retain their aroma. It also enhances the aroma of sake, whiskey, and wine, giving your everyday drinks a mellow, rich flavor.
[A traditional craft with a long history] Bizen ware is made by molding each piece from high-quality clay, drying it, and then firing it as is without painting or glazing, allowing the earthenware to show through. No two pieces have the same shape or firing quality, so each piece is unique.
[What is Bizen ware?] Bizen ware dates back to the Kofun period. The manufacturing method of Sue ware changed, and it settled into its current form between the Kamakura and Momoyama periods. It is one of Japan's six ancient kilns, and is a simple pottery that allows you to enjoy the natural flavor of the clay. Its greatest feature is that it is fired without any painting or glaze. Fired at high temperatures of over 1200 degrees for around 10 days, Bizen ware is dense and strong, with a delicately textured surface and slight breathability, providing excellent heat retention. These characteristics make it a popular tableware that enhances the flavor of food and drinks.
