It is said that an sake cup made of a Tin called tin makes sake taste better. The reason for this is the "excellent purifying effect of tin ions," which removes miscellaneous tastes and improves the taste of sake. Thirdly, tin does not rust even in water, so there is no risk of harmful substances leaching out, and it has no adverse effects on the human body. Lastly, it will not break due to use or aging like ceramics or glass, so you can use it for a long time without worry.
