Masu Box with Lid

Masu is a traditional Japanese wooden box. Oftentimes, people measure rice or drink sake out of it, enjoying the added flavor of the natural woody scent. The scent of Hinoki cypress assists you in enhancing your relaxing mood.

Our high-quality box has a smooth surface, making it nice to hold and sip out from. And with the lid, it can be a storage box to put small items such as jewelry, perfume, etc.

Although it can be used for anything, we would like to recommend drinking coffee out of it. It gives a touch of woody flavor and can bring a twist to your daily coffee routine. If you are concerned with staining, we recommend our Coated Masu Box Cup.
