    A very kind BA who visited Kiuchi Brewery in 2010. He talked the bewery into selling him their very last one. I consider myself very lucky to have this piece, especially after hearing the story of how he obtained it.

    I beginning to think Hitachino Nest is the Goose Island of non-US glassware.

    Thanks Queens! You're one of the only people I know that likes them as much as I do. I'll keep a look out for doubles for you.

    In which aspect? I only have one GI glass in my collection, (not that my opinion matters) but all the others I'm not a fan of at all.

    In that they seem to be cranking out many many different styles at many different times, and every time you think you've seen them all, another one pops up.

    Damn it! Between this one and that tulip snifter, I'll get no sleep for a month searching. Jesus, I wish I could unseen these, if you know what I mean. :slight_smile:

    No one is looking at that element beaker when you put it next to that mikkeller teku! That's a tough little fuckr to land.

    THat glass is amazing! Can you buy this thing online or is it trade only?

    I had to trade for mine. They have an online shop but the glass isn't listed. You can always try to call them directly.
