Dassai
Collaboration with one of Japan’s favorite sake breweries won’t get you drunk, will make you happy.
Dassai Instrumentality Project is a team-up between one of Japan’s favorite anime franchises and one of its best sake makers.
Japan’s most popular sake brand teams up with its most popular domestic burger chain for a dessert drink like no other.
Premium Japanese rice wine and high-quality powdered green tea make for a truffle that’s bursting with traditional flavours.
The goal of advertising is usually to increase sales, but for Dassai a love of sake, and customers, is more important.
We’ve already seen sake-flavored Kit Kats; now we have sake-flavored karinto crackers, made with sake cake from the highly coveted Dassai!
