"Kol Shofar" is unique factory producing ram's horn of every kind.
The horns production is performed using old and traditional techniques combined with modern techniques, and all under very strict supervision of quality and kashruth of the shofars.
The factory is located in Ramat Hagolan (Israel) and is under rabbinical supervision; Shimon Kinan who is a senior shofar blower and is skilled with the secerets of shofars produces the shofars.
The production process:
When Shimon holds in his hand a ram’s horn, he already knows what will be its shape and how, at the end of the process, the Shofar's blow will be heard…
The ram’s horn arrives at the factory and immediately goes through washing and disinfections process.
The first stage the process includes straightening the shofar, processing the mouthpiece and drilling a long hole in the narrow part of the shofar. In this stage it is already possible to blow the shofar and examine the sound quality.
Here the manufacturer’s experience as a shofar blower is very important.
