Flag of Date Hokkaido (Japan) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces the flag of Date City in Hokkaido, Japan: a deep blue field with a single white municipal emblem set dead centre.

Visual Elements & Composition

The flag is built on restraint. Dark blue, close to black at #0a0c27, covers about 85 percent of the design, and white takes up the rest. The emblem is a plain white circle, and its diameter is exactly three-fifths of the flag's hoist height, so it sits with a formal, measured presence rather than floating in empty space. The flag follows a 2:3 proportion, and the flat vector style leaves no shading or texture to distract from the outline. Nothing else competes for attention.

Meaning & Symbolism

The emblem is municipal heraldry, a civic symbol that stands for Date City itself. It was first adopted on May 1, 1936, and the rules governing how the flag may be used were formally set down on February 25, 1978. Those dates matter: they show a symbol that has been part of the city's identity for nearly a century. The blue and white palette carries that sense of regional pride and official authority, the kind of visual shorthand that a town uses to say "this is who we are."

Made for the Hand, Not the Wall

A shot glass is small, lifted quickly, and held close, so this flag becomes a detail you notice at eye level. The white circle sits right where your thumb and fingers rest, and the blue field reads as one confident block. It is the kind of design that gets a second look after the first round, and a good reason to ask someone where Date City is.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
