About Dream of the Blue Manual Class Pacáistiú Deochanna Alcólacha

Is pacáistiú é Dream of the Blue Manual Class le haghaidh baijiu den scoth, biotáille dhriogtha thraidisiúnta Shíneach. Tá cruth deoire ar an mbuidéal agus bailchríoch dhúghorm le hór miotalach air. Déantar an ghloine a ghaineamhshéideadh agus ansin a chóta le péint bailchríche casúir, rud a thugann dromchla bog te di atá cosúil le láib siléir. Léiríonn na greantaí stua ó Ghairdíní Clasaiceacha Suzhou agus dhá mhóimint déag ríthábhachtacha den bhranda. Sa bhosca cur i láthair, cuirtear leathar ilbhreac gorm le chéile le páipéar a bhfuil uigeacht adhmaid air agus le mionsonraí te-bhrúite. Cosnaíonn córas ceithre chód an pacáistiú in aghaidh na góchumadóireachta.
