Important Care & Safety Guidelines
Storage & Environment: Keep out of reach of small children. To preserve the natural rich wood grain and prevent warping or color fading, store in a cool, dry, and dark place. Avoid direct sunlight, high temperatures, and high humidity.
Intended Use: Please use this product only for its intended purpose as a traditional beverage cup, kitchen vessel, or decorative container. Keep away from open flames and high heat sources.
Microwave & Dishwasher Warning: Do not use in microwaves, ovens, gas stoves, dishwashers, or dish dryers. (Hand wash only)

Traditional Usage & Maintenance Guidelines
Because this artisan piece is crafted from pure, untreated natural cedar to maximize its authentic aroma, it responds dynamically to moisture. To enjoy its beauty for a long time, please follow these traditional care steps:
Before Use: Do not soak the wood in water before use. Simply pour your beverage directly into the dry cup.
After Use (Cleaning): Right after use, gently rinse only the inside and the rim of the cup with running water. Lightly shake off excess water, then place it upside down in a well-ventilated, shaded area to air-dry completely.
Pro-Tip for Longevity: Avoid wetting the outer surface excessively. Too much moisture on the outside can cause the natural wood to expand, which may create minor gaps over time.
Enjoying Traditional Sake: To experience sake in the true, traditional Japanese style—and to completely prevent any natural weeping or minor seepage from the raw wood seams—we highly recommend placing a beautiful small ceramic saucer or tray underneath the Masu cup during your tasting session.
