Unlike ordinary ice, clean spherical ice with less air bubbles and impurities is formed "WINTERS MITHS"

With spherical ice you can enjoy sake more tastefully and visually and it will be possible to enjoy a chilled alcohol for a long time than cooling chilled alcohol with normal ice "WINTERS MITHS"is.

This is spherical ice made with WINTERS MITHS. It is very beautiful and does not contain bubbles or impurities, and if you put it in sake it will be more atmosphere than using ordinary ice.


Chris Little, the developer of WINTERSMITHS, inspired me to invent the device to make this spherical ice, when he was working in Japan. It is in Ebisu of JapanMARTHAHe goes to a bar to say that he felt as if he drank on Bourbon's on the rock with beautiful spherical ice and drinking a totally different sake just by different ice .


After examining the equipment that makes spherical ice after returning home, it turned out that the equipment would cost $ 1000 (about 100,000 yen), and it turned out to be a tremendous effort to make spherical ice. I also find a device made of silicone made cheap spherical ice, but there seems to be a mixture of bubbles and impurities, as there was no beautiful spherical ice like it came out with MARTHA. Chris, who thought about making ice by myself while doing so, worked with his brother Pato for more than a year to produce WINTERSMITHS.


WINTERS MITHS has a unique design and eliminates air bubbles and impurities as ice creates from the top to the bottom. The following ice on the left side is WINTERS MITHS and the right side is spherical ice made with other equipment.


This prototype WINTERSMITHS was completed from a lot of ideas.


The structure of WINTERS MITHS is like this.


For use image, take out WINTERS MITHS which was kept in the freezer for a while.


Turn the lid ......


Paccari. Make ice Material which is non-toxic and easy to remove ice is used for this part.


Spherical ice is completed inside.


This kind of ice is finished.


Also, put spherical ice and regular ice made with WINTERS MITHS in a drink and measure how long the ice melts.


Normal ice melted without a trace in about 1 hour 12 minutes.


Since the spherical ice made with WINTERS MITHS is kept for about 1 hour and 54 minutes, you can enjoy alcohol chilled for a long time rather than drinking with ordinary ice, and also because the ice melts due to the melting effect It can be thinner than normal ice.


this"WINTERS MITHSIsKickstarterWe are seeking investment, and we have already succeeded in collecting $ 72,530 (about 7.24 million yen) far exceeding the target of 20,000 dollars (about 2 million yen), and it is almost certain that we will commercialize it. The deadline for the project is 8:42 pm on July 20 in Japan time and it is possible to get one WINTERSMITHS by equity investment of 70 dollars (about 7028 yen).
