Warren Kitchen goes to Japan!

Flag of Japan  Kikuichi logo

Richard Von Husen will be going to Japan this month to visit Kikuichi's knife factory AND to take part in the Seki Cutlery Festival.



Seki has a 780 year history of sword and cutlery manufacturing. An important industry of Seki City, sword and cutlery manufacture is also a tourist attraction. Many people visit the Cutlery Festival which is held to commemorate Motoshige, the first swordsmith in Seki, and to honor his contribution to the industry, as well as to promote further development of the city. Interesting elements of the festival include demonstrations of traditional Japanese sword forging, a cutlery discount market, an exhibition of antique swords and knives and a memorial service for cutlery. Many other events await visitors.

Kikuichi

We'll post photos in the November newsletter. Meanwhile, stop by and ask Richard how it went

Riedel: The Wine Glass Company!
Vinum XL
Positioned as the new generation of Riedel wine glasses, Vinum XL brings fresh excitement to the benchmark Vinum machine blown range.
The collection includes superior and finely tuned wine glass shapes for major Grape varietals such as Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, the world's celebration beverage Champagne and not forgetting a glass for fun, enlightening Cocktails and Martinis.

"O" SeriesRiedel's O glass
Maximilian Riedel (11th generation) presents his first glass series. The Riedel connoisseur will be surprised to find that this new glass series has something missing - there is no stem or base. So what is "O"? Riedel "O" is the new innovative take on the wine tumbler. In short: "O" is the ideal glass for every day use and for every occasion. It is fun, feels good to hold, looks trendy and it works!

The designs of "O" are based on the benchmark shapes of Riedel Vinum. For the first time in glass history the design parameters such as shape of tumbler, size and diameter of rim, have been finely-tuned to enhance the world's most important grape varietals. "O" is available as: Cabernet/Merlot, Pinot/Nebbiolo, Syrah/Shiraz, Chardonnay, Viognier/Chardonnay, Riesling/Sauvignon.



Size, Shape, Taste
Check out everything  Riedel has to say about the experience of drinking with properly shaped glassware!
