Imari Togei Co., Ltd. has developed a ceramic filter that brings out the umami of alcoholic beverages simply by setting the filter and pouring the beverage through it.
Pre-sales launched on the crowdfunding site "Makuake" on Friday, December 13 at 20:00.
It is said to be an innovative item that can be used not only for sake, but also for wine.
Let's take a look at the details.
About "Aoi Shizuku"
"Aoi Shizuku" is a ceramic filter developed by Imari Togei Co., Ltd. that brings out the umami of alcoholic beverages.
"Aoi Shizuku" is crafted from Hasami ware, a traditional Japanese craft passed down through generations.
Hasami ware is pottery produced in the area around Hasami Town, Nagasaki Prefecture, which originated about 400 years ago and continues to evolve today while making the most of tradition.
Can also be used for wine
The method of using "Aoi Shizuku" is extremely simple.
Just set the filter and pour your drink.
By filtering the drink through an ultra-precise microscopic structure, this item softens off-flavors and rounds out the mouthfeel to make it mellow.
It can be used not only for sake, but also for beverages such as wine.
It is said that even with beverages that have been open for some days, it softens off-flavors and transforms them into an even mellower taste.
