FAQs about Sake Cups

What is a sake cup called?

A sake cup is commonly referred to as an ochoko. This traditional Japanese vessel is designed specifically for serving and enjoying sake, allowing you to savor the rich flavors and aromas of this beloved rice wine.

Other types of sake cups may include tokkuri (sake bottles) and masu (wooden boxes), but the ochoko remains a popular choice for its elegant design and cultural significance.

Why are sake cups so small?

Sake cups are typically small to encourage mindful sipping and appreciation of the drink. Traditionally, sake is served in smaller portions to enhance the tasting experience, allowing you to fully enjoy the intricate flavors and aromas.

This practice also promotes a social drinking environment, where people often share sake and engage in conversation over multiple rounds.

How much does a sake cup hold?

The capacity of a sake cup can vary, but most ochoko cups hold between 30ml to 65ml (1 to 2.2 ounces).

This size is perfect for savoring the rich nuances of sake while allowing for multiple pours during a social gathering. Some cups may hold slightly more or less, depending on their design and purpose.

How to drink from a sake cup?

To enjoy sake from an ochoko, start by pouring the sake into the cup, filling it to about three-quarters full to allow room for the aromas. Hold the cup with both hands, as this shows respect for the drink.

Raise the sake cup to your lips and take a small sip to savor the flavors. In traditional settings, it’s common to toast with your companions before drinking, enhancing the social experience. Remember to appreciate the taste and aroma, as sake is meant to be enjoyed slowly and thoughtfully.
