Sake is a traditional alcoholic beverage in Japan, and it is an important part of the Japanese culture. In recent years, Japanese cuisine has become more popular internationally. Accordingly, increasing numbers of people enjoy sake, which goes well with Japanese cuisine, all over the world.
In Japan, there is an idiom called "Tian Yuan Di Fang", which means that the sky is rounded, and the land is rectangular. Also, as everyone knows, the Japanese have a high respect for food. So, I use "round" and "rectangular" as the basic shape of the product to express users' gratitude for nature.
