Sake is an alcoholic beverage of Japanese origin made by fermenting rice that has been polished to remove the bran.
In Japan, where it is the national beverage, sake is often served with special ceremony, where it is gently warmed in a small earthenware or porcelain bottle and sipped from a small porcelain cup called a sakazuki.
This beautiful sake set glazed in deep green and washed blue hues is in perfect vintage condition and carries a satsuma mark on the bottom.
