    Gifu Pref. Ogakishi Nishitogawachou 2-8
    This is the directly operated store of the masu (wooden square shape sake cup) maker Ohashi Ryoki, and is located a 15-minute walk from JR Ogaki Station in Gifu Prefecture. Including masu used as congratulatory cups from a traditional size of three shaku (about 54 ml) to one go (about 180 ml), they sell many drinking sets such as their Apollo Wine Masu that is suited for drinking wine, wine coolers and a masu mug coated with a urushi coating. They also manufacture and sell everyday goods including magazine racks and eco humidifiers using traditional masu making techniques. Their “Goukaku Shimasu” (you will succeed) and “Goukaku Masu Strap” (success sake cup strap) created as lucky charms are highly recommended.

Tucked away in the very center of Japan, Gifu prefecture houses mountains, old towns, and one of Japan’s greatest hot springs, Gero Onsen. A tour of the prefecture’s traditional architecture will take you from the mountain-enveloped wooden streets of Takayama to the mountain village of Shirakawago, where visitors can explore 250-year-old thatched roofed houses known as gassho-zukuri.
