Mt. Hotaka, located in Japan's Hida Mountains, holds a storied past closely intertwined with Japanese history. Its significance traces back to ancient Shugendo practices, where ascetics journeyed to its peaks, seeking spiritual enlightenment amidst its rugged terrain. The surrounding region is known for the Gassho-zukuri thatched-roof farmhouses, showcasing traditional Japanese architecture and culture. In more recent history, Mount Hotaka's exceptional scenery has attracted mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts. Today, it stands as a testament to Japan's enduring reverence for the natural world and its capacity to offer spiritual insight, all while serving as a playground for adventure and cultural exploration.

 

The connection between Oregon and Japan runs deep, with similarities abound. Both cultures lead with kindness. Both have a deep love for simple, premium design. Both cultures have a commitment to excellence in craft and food - we even share a restaurant (hi AFURI and Snowpeak). Both have a deep culture of crafted spirits. Both are constantly renewed by bathing in nature to fill the soul. Both find inspiration from the volcanic peaks that tower in the distance. It is because of these similarities that we worked to create a glass to celebrate Japan made in Oregon.
