A slim ceramic flask beside its matching cup, both usually shown in white with a blue stripe, a tokkuri and sakazuki set for serving sake warm. Japanese rice wine specifically claims it, and izakaya nights and Japanese-restaurant dinners more broadly reach for it too, sake poured out in small, shared rounds.
What 🍶 means
A white vase-shaped flask with a bowl-like narrow rim and a blue stripe at the bottom. There's also a cup of the same colour including the blue stripe next to the bottle.
