Tsunan Sake Brewery, renowned for brewing sake in one of the world’s most snow-abundant regions, is excited to introduce the “Gosetsu Set”. This unique offering, launching with the season’s first snow in December 2023, features three bottles of sake, each enshrouded in the freshly fallen snow from the brewery’s locale.

This release is designed to share not just the sake, but also the environmental gifts of snow. The “Gosetsu Set” comprises three limited-edition bottles of sake, nestled in the snow that blankets the brewery, providing a distinctive touch of Tsunan’s winter.
