The essential function of any soy sauce dispenser is, above all else, no dripping. Development of THE Soy Sauce Dispenser began with solving this fundamental challenge.

We designed the spout from scratch, creating prototype after prototype until we achieved satisfyingly clean pouring – remarkably, without any protruding ""beak"" at the top. For the form, we aimed for the most quintessential soy sauce dispenser shape. Drawing from that nostalgic design most people envision – the red-capped conical glass bottle – we've made three key improvements:

First: Materials
Every component is glass – specifically ""crystal glass"" with exceptional transparency. This eliminates the need for plastic threading and joints, creating a more hygienic, visually clean result.

Second: Capacity
Maintaining soy sauce's delicious flavour requires freshness. However, with today's diverse food options, soy sauce usage has decreased. We've set the capacity at 80ml – the perfect amount to use up whilst maintaining peak freshness.

Third: Proportions
We've retained the familiar, comfortable waisted shape whilst making it slightly more compact at 113mm height. The thicker base creates a stable, tip-resistant structure.

The beautifully transparent finish harmonises with any tableware – Japanese, Western, or alongside any cuisine.

Handling Precautions

  • When setting the lid and the main body, do not use too much force.
  • If you use too much force or screw it in too hard, it may not come off.
  • The liquid flows through the grooves between the main body and the lid. Please set the lid properly to the back before use. If it drips or gets dirty, wipe it and keep it clean.
  • The joints are prone to clogging and may stick together, so keep them clean.
  • If you do not use the product for a long time, the lid may not come off, so when storing it, dry it well and place paper between the main body and the lid or store them separately.
  • If it sticks, soak it in warm water, remove the clogged liquid, and then slowly move the lid to make it easier to remove.
  • Do not store the product on its side with contents inside.
  • If the product is scratched, it will be more likely to break.
  • Handle the glass carefully to avoid hitting it with other glass or hard objects.
  • Avoid using metal scrubbers or cleansers that may scratch the glass when cleaning.
  • Do not throw hard objects such as knives, forks, or spoons into the glass.
  • This is not heat-resistant glass. It may break due to a sudden change in temperature.
  • This product cannot be used in microwaves or ovens. Also, do not pour hot water into the glass, put cold objects in the glass while it is warm, or place it in a wet place.
  • As this is a handmade product, there may be some variation in color, pattern, shape, weight, etc.
