Town of manufacturing "Tsubamesanjo"
"Hashimoto metal"


Originally, Tsubamesanjo City has been a town of craftsmen for a long time.
Currently, companies that have the world's highest level of manufacturing technology as "manufacturing town Tsubamesanjo",
It will be an area where craftsmen gather.
Among them, this time, Hashimoto Kinzoku, who thought it was impossible five years ago,
We made tin and copper sake cups based on the shape of a wine glass.
When creating the glass this time, it is difficult to create the shape this time with metal.
There was also a crisis that I might not be able to create it on the way,
We had you repeat by hand many times and had you try and create current glass.

Handmade by a craftsman who inherited the tradition of MADE IN JAPAN
It is a glass that has been carefully selected.

Please check the details about Mr. Hashimoto Metal from the link below.

Mr. Kishimoto actually visited the Takenoan main store and had a meal,
When I asked him to create a logo, he readily agreed.

◇Comment from brewery◇


~Yamaguchi Prefecture Yaoshin Sake Brewery “Gangi”~


The luxurious color and the thinness of the mouth convey the taste of sake straight.
If you're going to drink Gangi's sake, you'll want to enjoy it with Junmai Daiginjo Sekirei.
The shape makes it easy to pick up the scent, and the warmth that is transmitted to the hand is also good.


~Hiroshima Kanemitsu Sake Brewery “Kamo Kanehide”~


Luxury design.
Despite being made of this material, I was surprised at how thin the mouthpiece was.
The sensation of the temperature of the sake on your fingers proves the goodness of the heat conduction, which is wonderful.
If you want to pour Kamo Kanehide, it's "special junmai".
Cold sake that has been thoroughly chilled and sake that is close to room temperature are all more delicious.


<Thank you for supporting Makuake!> ! >
Thanks to your support, we have reached our goal.
Thank you again.


More than a year after the outbreak of the coronavirus, there is still no prospect of its impact disappearing.
As a result, not only the food and beverage industry for infection control,
I think many people continue to endure a painful and restricted daily life.
What should we do in this situation?
As a result of asking myself
“We are a group that makes profits by playing a social role through cooperation with producers and preservation of food culture. 』
I decided to preserve the culture of Japanese food and sake.


<Characteristics of glass>
・Shape that draws out the aroma based on the shape of wine glasses and liquor glasses
・Tin and copper are used as materials with high thermal conductivity, and the mouth is 0.7 mm thick, making it more comfortable to drink than you can imagine.
・Request from Hashimoto, Tsubame Sanjo City, which is famous for its metal processing technology.Prototypes are all handmade by craftsmen
I am proud that it is the best glass in Japan that allows you to enjoy both.
In addition, we have included the “Take no Iori” logo designed by calligrapher AI KISHIMOTO.


<Background>


(XNUMX) The shape, material, thickness of the mouth, etc. of the glass, such as Japanese sake and wine, greatly differ in how the mouth and aroma are perceived.
*I attended a seminar on "The taste of wine changes depending on the glass" and learned that the same can be said for other types of alcoholic beverages.
(XNUMX) The best container for sake is tin, which has high thermal conductivity, quickly cools the mouth when drinking, and has the ability to purify water.
(XNUMX) Wine glasses are in the spotlight as sake glasses, and they are very effective especially when you want to enjoy the aroma.
In fact, based on the above three points, when I opened the third restaurant, Kuzushi Kappo Tempura Takeno-Iori, five years ago, I planned to make tin wine glasses.
However, at that time, there was also the cost of starting up, and the cost of the mold alone would cost a huge amount of money.
We purchased two types of sake, a wine glass specializing in creating fragrance and a tin sake cup, and had the customers drink them.
I acted as the store manager at Tempura Takeno-Iori for about three years.
We were able to carry out deeper verification and further research to create the ultimate glass.
As a result, I was convinced that if I made a tin wine glass, it would be the ultimate sake glass.


I know that everyone is having a difficult time with various restrictions in their lives,
We have prepared a plan that you can enjoy to the fullest even in this corona wreck, so we would appreciate it if you would support us.
I just hope there will be a day when I can meet you freely without restrictions.
I hope you are all healthy and enjoying your food.
