Exploring Tasting Notes of a Complex Sake and Discussing the Potential of Warming it Up

Episode 169. This week, we are returning to our series on sake vessels, but this time looking at sake serviceware in particular.  We're focusing in on the Tokkuri, the workhorse carafe used for sake service across the world.  Tokkuri carafes can be used to serve sake chilled, room temperature, and to warm it up as well. The materials used to make tokkuri run the gamut from metal to glass to wood, with the most popular being ceramic.  However utilitarian, use of the tokkuri comes with some etiquette rules, too.  Have you broken any of the Tokkuri rules? Listen in and let's find out! #sakerevolution
