Like a split-flavor gelato with sweet summer raspberry and creamy lime intermingling as they melt. The interior offers a fun contrast of icy blue, deep sage green and gunmetal crystalline networks. This delicate guinomi (a larger sake cup, or smaller teacup) is perfectly proportionate and covered in compelling vivid colors!
Benio's delicately crafted ceramic feels like the barest boundary between lips and sake. The soft, thin lip and smooth texture of the guinomi's lip makes sake taste sweeter and lets your nose enter the glass, appreciating more of the aroma. Its slightly larger size allows for a more generous pour between refills.
These cups are handcrafted by Ehime-trained Tokyo artist Benio Tomishima.
Benio is compensated in proportion to American retail pricing, in order to afford her a fair percentage of Sunflower sales.
