Goma Sake Set
Experience the timeless elegance of Bizen Ware with this exquisite sake set featuring the goma pattern, meaning “sesame.” The coarse texture, rich colors, and intricate patterns created by the kiln’s flames exemplify Bizen Ware—the revered “art of clay and fire.”
The goma pattern is achieved by using pine wood during the firing process. As the pine wood burns, it turns to ash that adheres to the sake set, forming a design reminiscent of sprinkled sesame seeds. Each firing produces a unique pattern, ensuring that every piece is a one-of-a-kind work of art.
The microscopic pores within Bizen ware mellow the flavors of sake and enhance its aroma, a quality celebrated for centuries. There is even a saying that “second-grade sake becomes first-grade sake when kept in a Bizen ware pot,” highlighting the ware’s ability to elevate the sake-drinking experience.
Each set is thoughtfully delivered in a wooden box, making it an ideal gift for your loved ones. Whether for a special occasion or a thoughtful gesture, this Bizen ware sake set is sure to be cherished.
