A "Guinomi" Sake Cup Made of 100% Pure Tin

Tin is a metal, yet it has a familiar quality and even feels warm somehow. Glasses made of tin, which is said to purify water and make beverages smoother, are perfect as sake vessels. With high thermal conductivity, they allow you to drink cold beverages while keeping them cold.

The Auspicious Mount Fuji Design

This design is perfect for both everyday use and special occasions. While at first glance it might seem to be just the shape of the vessel, there is actually a small Mount Fuji at the bottom too. The charming Mount Fuji that appears when you finish your drink is likely to become one of the pleasures of using it.

A Complete Gift Set with Guinomi and Sake Pourer

Guinomi sake cups with the auspicious Mount Fuji motif. For those who enjoy sake, wouldn't they also want a sake pourer to go with it? This gift set includes both guinomi cups and a sake pourer, truly a gift set for sake lovers.

One of the guinomi cups is the standard version made solely of tin. The other is a different color version with gold leaf on the inside. Although it's a pair set, it can of course be used by just one person. You can choose between a paulownia wood box or a paper box, allowing you to select according to your purpose.

Something that might be hard to buy for oneself but would be delightful to receive... Isn't this the perfect item for those looking for such a gift? How about it as a present for that sake-loving person?

■ Usage Precautions

Please avoid excessive movement such as repeatedly applying force to one spot. Due to its low melting point, do not place over direct flame. Cannot be used in microwave ovens, dishwashers, or dryers. Do not place in the freezer as it may cause tin pest (discoloration and deformation of tin).

■ Maintenance

After use, wash with kitchen detergent (neutral) using a soft cloth or sponge, just like other tableware. Do not scrub with hard brushes. Also, do not polish with cleanser as it is soft and easily scratched. When the luster becomes dull, it can be restored by polishing with commercially available metal polish, toothpaste, or baking soda.
