January's glass

Daiginjou glass
(vinum
416/75) \500
The Daiginjou glass is made especially for the variety of wines such as sake and nihonshu, a number of glass types were repeatedly sampled with Daiginjou, and this one was selected. This glass is designed to balance out the sweet and the bitter flavors, and the enlarged egg-shaped bowl that the glass has enhances the characteristic clear and resonant fragrances.

December's glass
 |
Sauternes
(sommeliers
400/55) \500
The function that this ideally shaped Riedel glass brings is extremely simple. By strengthening a wine's bitterness, when drinking a sweet wine it gives the feeling of just enough sweetness along with its sour undertones. By all means please try it.
