Selecting Sake Set
When selecting your favourite sake set, there are factors that need to be taken into consideration as well! Like the capacity of the sake cup and the width of the sake cup’s mouth.
- Capacity of Sake Cup: Sake flavours and its aroma will change whenever the temperature changes. To prevent that from happening, serving sake in a small cup will let you finish the sake quickly without giving it a chance to alter its temperature.
- The width of the Sake Cup mouth: The wider a sake cup’s mouth is, the easier it is to sniff out the aroma of the Sake.
Though there are a variety of sake cup in this world, finding the one you love the most is the most important factor of all; if you enjoy the cup that you’re drinking from, you certainly will enjoy the drink.
