This pitcher is made of high quality aluminium, a metal known for its light weight and excellent heat conductivity, perfect for heating up and serving atsukan, hot sake. Drinking heated sake is popular during the colder seasons in Japan; atsukan refers to sake that is heated to about 50 degrees celsius. Filling the chirori with sake then immersing it in hot water is the best way to warm sake, allowing the texture, flavour and aroma of the drink to be fully appreciated.

Not microwave safe.
Handwashing recommended.

Size: H11 cm x Ø11 cm

松野屋

Founded in 1945, Matsunoya is a wholesaler of miscellaneous household items, or aramono. This term is rarely used in modern times, but it refers to objects such as brooms, dustpans, and kitchen tools – items for daily life found in most Japanese homes. Matsunoya staff travel across Japan to find items lovingly made in small, local factories and farms. The company also produces its own original aramono by working directly with small manufacturers.
