The earthenware bottle from which nihonshu (日本酒), or Japanese rice wine, is decanted is the tokuri (徳利). The term is sometimes used to denote bottles (not necessarily earthenware,though) containing shouyu (醤油- soy sauce）and other liquids used in cooking. The cup pictured is referred to as a sakazuki or guinomi. Incidentally, tokuri may refer to a ''turtle neck' shirt or sweater.
