Why is the rim of the whiskey shot glass fire-finished?

Because it is difficult to understand what difference the 'fire-finish' processing method written in the product description actually makes when drinking whiskey.

By fire-finishing the rim of the glass where lips touch to smooth it out, it eliminates rough edges and helps you feel a soft texture when drinking.

Since they are the same white glass seasoning jars, do the measuring markings or lid specifications also differ depending on the capacity?

When trying to prepare multiple sizes together according to the types of seasonings, you may wonder if the lids are interchangeable. It is also necessary to check whether measuring markings needed for cooking are included in all sizes.

[도요사사키] 화이트 유리 양념통 485ml
hmmm editorial answer

The lids are identical across all three capacities and can be swapped with each other, but capacity measurement markings are only on the 485ml and 930ml, and are not on the smallest 275ml.

This 930ml seasoning container combines a soda-lime glass body with a polypropylene lid. Markings in 100ml increments are engraved on the exterior, making it convenient for measuring and storing contents. You can attach the enclosed label stickers to keep your kitchen shelves organized.

Why this product

Three aspects were considered to neatly measure and use a generous amount of seasonings in the kitchen.

  1. Graduations to assist measuring

    Graduations in 100ml increments on the container's exterior allow you to immediately check the remaining amount as you use it. It is also easy to distinguish items by attaching names with the enclosed label stickers.

  2. Double-cap lid

    The spout is crafted with a double-cap structure, allowing contents to be poured and stored neatly.

  3. Glass body and separate cleaning

    The soda-lime glass body is dishwasher safe. The polypropylene lid, heat resistant up to 100℃, is cared for by separating it and washing it by hand.

Because three different shapes of glasses are bundled together, it is difficult to tell at a glance which glass should be used for which beer. This question is asked by those who want to check the differences in order to choose and use a glass suited to the type of beer.
