Asahi Zeitaku Shibori Premium Limited Edition Domestic Melon Launches on June 16

Asahi Breweries is releasing a new addition to its "Zeitaku Shibori" RTD (Ready to Drink) brand: the Asahi Zeitaku Shibori Premium Limited Edition Domestic Melon (アサヒ贅沢搾りプレミアム数量限定国産メロン), a canned chu-hai set to launch on June 16.

About the Product

The drink uses 5% domestic melon juice and is crafted to deliver the rich, sweet flavor profile characteristic of ripe melon. With an alcohol content of 4%, it sits within the standard range for the "Zeitaku Shibori" brand, which centers on a taste experience reminiscent of eating fresh, in-season fruit.

The can features a package design that prominently displays a whole melon alongside wedge-shaped melon slices, making the product's flavor character immediately apparent. A gold lid paired with Japanese-style artwork lends the can a premium look and feel.
