A Japanese Tradition
Unlike most alcoholic beverages, the sake plays a significant role in the Japanese culture. In fact, this beverage is served to everyone including children. During the Heian Era, sake was primarily used for religious ceremonies that people seldom drank this beverage for other occasions. Sake barrels were secured by traditionally garbed men at shrines and temples. Today, the Japanese Shinto religion still uses the sake in purification rituals.

Serving Sake
JC Uni-Tec remarks that while tradition carries sake as a religious symbol, the Japanese enjoy sake drinking even at the comforts of their homes. This alcoholic beverage has also gained popularity among other nationalities.

Sake can be served either warmed or chilled depending on the drinker's preference. Usually, it is drunk using a cup (ochoko), saucer (sakazuki), or “the box” (masu) . Although the masu was originally designed for measuring rice, it remains to be one of the most popular vessels in the traditional ways of drinking sake. And now, with the sake warmer within reach, sake drinkers and their guests can enjoy this warm brew without having to get up each time to refill an empty cup.
