The kagamibiraki opening of the sake cask with wooden hammers is an essential ritual in traditional Japanese celebrations. The sense of solidarity that rises when the cask opens cleanly while everybody cheers is sure to raise the mood of the party. Tradition holds that good luck comes from opening the cask in this way, and it tends to be used on celebratory occasions.
After opening the cask, cups are filled with the sake and everybody toasts “Kampai!” to share the good luck among all present.
Specialized staff provide support for the difficult tasks of transporting the cask and preparing the lid to crack open cleanly.
This option is perfect for parties held to celebrate weddings, the incorporation of companies, celebrations, the new year party, and other happy occasions you want to share with all present.
It also is recommended as a memorable introduction to a unique Japanese ceremony in parties welcoming guests from overseas. It would be a great memory for them.
A full range of options is available including special sake casks, wooden hammers, ladles, and cups of Anniversary Cruise.
