Japan Digital Distribution Co., Ltd. (based in Shibuya, Tokyo; President: Noriaki Takahide; hereafter JDS) will host a tasting event titled ‘THE CRAFT SAKE Shikoku Edition’ on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at Shibuya Cast Space & Garden, as part of their regional revitalization initiative, the ‘satonoka project’.

This event is a paid tasting opportunity where attendees can experience premium liquors from across Shikoku, including sake, gin, whiskey, beer, shochu, and plum wine, all previously featured in the satonoka original series ‘THE CRAFT SAKE Visiting Local Sake - Shikoku Edition (10 episodes total)’. The venue will screen program footage, allowing guests to explore the charm of breweries and distilleries while enjoying Shikoku’s finest products.

Representatives from the featured breweries and distilleries are scheduled to attend, providing guests with a chance to interact directly with them and learn about their craftsmanship, local charms, and recommended serving methods.

Furthermore, the adjacent Shibuya Cast Garden will host the ‘Shikoku Marche’, where food trucks and vendor booths will be available. Visitors can purchase local specialties from the four prefectures of Shikoku and enjoy some of the drinks offered at the tasting event for free.

Special stage programming at Shibuya Cast Garden will include a public recording session hosted by the popular YouTube channel ‘Bokutachi no Asobiba’ and ‘THE CRAFT SAKE Shikoku Edition’. Kensuke Takahashi and Yutaro from ‘Bokutachi no Asobiba’ will join representatives from the breweries for a talk session. The session will cover the allure of the featured breweries and distilleries, their dedication to production, and the local culture. As known sake enthusiasts, the pair will enjoy tasting sessions while drawing out behind-the-scenes stories and expert enjoyment tips directly from the producers.

The public recording session is scheduled to be streamed live on the official ‘Bokutachi no Asobiba’ YouTube channel. Those unable to attend in person can watch the event in real-time. Archived footage will also be available after the live broadcast ends.
