Hinemos will release several bottles of Japanese sake based on Persona 3 Reload. Pre-orders will open from February 2, 2024.
The sakes all drew inspiration from the Dark Hour and Hinemos likely partnered with Atlus for Persona 3 sake due to its own “time” concept. Hinemos usually releases wine with names like “Ichiji” (1 o’clock) or “Reiji” (Midnight). There will only be a limited supply of these exclusive sakes, so Hinemos encourages consumers to put in their orders as soon as possible. However, depending on the demand, Hinemos might produce more.
The three bottle designs depict the Dark Hour, Aigis, and the Protagonist. The designs are directly on the glass, so you don’t have to worry about them coming off under the water. This means that after you wash the bottles, you can use them as decoration or as a vase. There are three different flavors as well. You can buy them separately or in sets. Buying two bottles as a set will get you a sticker, and buying all three as a set will get you a miniature version of the Kagejikan Tartarus bottle.
Here are the prices, designs, and flavors of each bottle:
- Kagejikan Hero (6000 JPY)
A junmai sake with the light taste of apple. It has a multifaceted flavor profile to represent the Protagonist’s Wild Card ability. - Kagejikan Aigis (6000 JPY)
A nigori sake made with a rice base and is sweet enough to be a dessert wine. You can eat it with any cuisine to represent how Aigis is always at the Protagonist’s side. - Kagejikan (6000 JPY)
A junmai daiginjo sake with a flavor similar to tropical fruits. The taste is supposed to make you wonder at the magic of yeast, which is responsible for its flavor profile, and represents the bizarre world of the Dark Hour.
The Persona 3 Reload sake will be available to pre-order from February 2, 2024. Persona 3 Reload will come out on February 2, 2024, for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC.
