Sora Kyu A sorakyu is a special cup from Kagoshima Sora Kyu
A sorakyu is a special cup from Kagoshima used to make a party livelier. It’s purposely designed so that you can’t put your drink down without spilling or without continually covering a hole on the bottom with your finger. Basically, if you receive some shochu, you must drink the shochu.
*Please drink responsibly
