Yesterday I went to Shitamachi Museum near Ueno and it was bloody awesome. Inside is a recreation of a merchant business and 2 commoner tenements. This pic is of the copper smith's tea pot and sake warmer. The sake was placed in a container full of water warmed from the coals: but not so hot as to boil. Perfect sake temperature, I'm told, is 38C.
