HIMURO Thermal Sake Cooler

Thermal Sake Cooler HIMURO was conceived from the voices of sake lovers, wishing to keep the bottle perfectly chilled without getting wet. The exterior is a beautiful wooden tub shaped by the handiwork of craftsmen. Interior is made of cast aluminum with good thermal conductivity.

By placing ice in the double bottom, bottles are gently cooled without direct contact with ice or water. Wrapped snugly in a wooden tub with excellent heat-retaining properties, it keeps the inside chilled for a long time.
