【303select】Arita ware Japanese Tusu wine set 1 pot 3 cups

★Arita porcelain Handmade by Japanese craftsmen "Toso" is a special sake vessel used exclusively during the Japanese New Year, usually consisting of a pot and three cups. It is said that this custom and culture was first introduced to Japan from China during the Heian period and has been passed down to this day. Therefore, its appearance is different from the common sake pot. Instead, it is shaped like a teapot familiar to Taiwanese people. It is equipped with three wine cups, large, medium and small. Usually, the head of the family holds the smallest wine cup on the top and starts with the youngest family member, wishing the new year to be free from illness and disaster while drinking it with Osechi cuisine. The first glass of wine that the Japanese drink on New Year's morning is called "Tusu wine". In addition to celebrating the New Year, drinking Tusu wine also means driving away bad spirits and bad luck from the past year. It has the meaning of removing bad luck and blessing the beginning of a new year. "Tusu" was originally a kind of medicinal wine, but in modern Japan, the first glass of wine drunk in the New Year is called Tusu wine. Therefore, this Tusu wine vessel can not only hold traditional Tusu medicinal wine, but also sake and other wines. Its shape can also be used as a tea snack.
