The Sake must be filled to the brim and must then be drunk from the corner. Traditionally, it is not polite to pour your own cup, this must be done by the host if your cup is empty. If the host's cup is empty, it is polite to offer to refill it. The wooden Sake cup can also be used to place a Sake glass in it. The intention is that the Sake is filled to exactly the brim and the wooden cup can drip and prevent waste.
Of course, these cups cannot be put in the dishwasher, rinsing by hand and wiping dry is sufficient.
