    Stopped by Tanakaya in Tokyo and found some fun glassware.

    New (?) Hitachino tulip glass was $20!

    These were more do-able. Mini Hoegaarden was $2 and the Cantillon was $5

    Nice. I picked up a Cantillon glass there back in April 2014. They didn't have any craft Japanese glassware at the time, though.

    Oh man, I collect Hitachino glassware! It looks awesome but also really thin and fragile. Is it?

    It looks like the spiegelau glass that GI used for the '14 BCBS snifter. If so, it'll be a bit stronger than it looks but not a work horse /everyday glass.

    Samesies as the KBS snifter too. FWIW, mine's already chipped.
