Label Design
The label was designed by Tsuyoshi Nigamushi. The eye-catching character is a combination of a "mountain ascetic" from Ominesan and an "ogre" dancing at the Gyoja Festival, a summer tradition in Dorogawa. In the future, we plan to develop beer glasses, key chains, and other items utilizing this illustration that will bring back memories of the trip every time they are used.
