Tokkuri - Drinking Hot Sake with Daruma
quote
Generic term for ceramic flasks used to warm and serve sake, usually with a narrow neck for retaining heat. Tokkuri come in all shapes and sizes. Usually holds about 360 ml. of sake. The most popular styles are Bizen, Iga, Shigaraki, Imari, and Mino. Click here to learn about each of these styles in our Pottery Guidebook. Choshi is another term for tokkuri, but most often choshi are made of metal and have a handle.
You can find all the necessaray information about Tokkuri and their various forms on this extensive HP of Robert Yellin.
The most common form is probably
the form of a scallion (rakkyoo 辣韮) ,
the head of a crane (tsurukubi 鶴首) or
in form of a turnip (kabura 蕪).

This TOKKURI is a traditional Japanese item not only in the YAHO area but everywhere in Japan during the early Showa period. A KAYOI-TOKKURI was used to buy SAKE at a store and carry it home in the bottle. Usually it belonged to the store and had the name of the store in big Chinese letters written on it. The neck part was formed to hold back a string for carrying the bottle and nowadays it is closed with a cork.
This kind of tokkuri was also used for buying soy sauce.

Hot Rice Wine in a Tokkuri
When sake is served hot, it is put in a small pottery bottle called tokkuri. The tokkuri is placed in a hot bowl of water until the sake reaches the correct temperature (about 50 degrees C), although many Japanese use microwaves today.
You can read a lot more about making and drinking sake from the extensive HP of this Sake Museum.
There is also a Japanese HP.

drinking it all up,
let’s make it into a flower vase:
the four liter wine barrel.
Tr. Barnhill
quote
Finishing our drink —
lets arrange these flowers in
this sake bottle—flower vase
Here Basho recollects a line of poetry from Tu Fu.
This sake bottle now changed into a flower vase. For a while Li Po and Tu Fu shared a brief friendship, exchanging poems with each other. Li Po is thought of as being earthy, while Tu Fu as that of the moon. Li Po is at his best when drunk and happy, like a lark singing at heaven’s gate. Tu Fu wrote his best poems when angry, like a nightingale singing with his throat against a thorn.
Nearly a thousand years passed and Basho helped perpetuate their poems in his own writing .
