These jars are useful for making pickled plums (umeboshi), plum wine (umeshu), fruit wine, and fermented foods. Three of them have handles and are made in Japan (one from Toyo-Sasaki Glass, two from Ishizuka Glass). I was making umeboshi, but the number of jars is increasing, so I am selling them to organize. They have been washed, but there may be odors or scratches. Please consider this before purchasing. Sizes: One 4L jar, two 2L jars (red lid jars) Three small jars for portioning, 830ml each, purchased from Seria.
