2019.01.19 published
Have you ever tried "canned wine"?
Have you ever picked up a can of "canned wine" instead of a bottle?
Canned wine is not commonly seen in Japan yet, but it is currently experiencing an unprecedented boom overseas!
In the United States, the canned wine market, which was worth 300 million yen in 2014, grew to 3.6 billion yen by 2018, showing a remarkable 12-fold growth.
There are two reasons for this.
What is the charm of canned wine?♡
One reason canned wine is popular overseas is its convenience♡
With bottled wine, it's heavy and hard to carry around, and the large quantity makes it difficult to finish. In addition to the bottle, you also need other items like glasses and a corkscrew.
In contrast, with canned wine, you can carry a single can and cheer anytime, anywhere, making it very easy to enjoy♡ It seems that many people serve it at home parties or give it as souvenirs.
The second reason for its popularity is the stylish packaging that looks great on Instagram♡
Many canned wines that appeal to young people are sold overseas.
These cute alcoholic drinks, which have never been seen before, are also very popular among women♩
You can buy canned wine in Japan!!
Canned wine, which is gaining popularity overseas. Although it is still not widely available in Japan, there are a few types that can be purchased online, so let me introduce them to you♡
Canned wine available online① Barokes
The first one I’d like to introduce is "Barokes," a canned wine from Australia, the world's first canned wine♡
Peter Scadamoar Smith, who has the Master of Wine qualification—held by only 278 people worldwide, and only 13 in Australia—oversees the wine purchasing, blending, and quality control.
Not only is it easy to carry in a can, but the taste is also top-notch♡
Its simple packaging is stylish and mature.
Barokes offers six varieties: sparkling red/white/rosé and premium white/red, as well as Moscato, each with different label colors.
It is sold in a pack of 24 for 9,472 yen including tax, making the price per bottle 394 yen when bought in bulk. This is a perfect price for a small gift.

Canned wine available online② Migaki Ichigo Kanet
Next, I’d like to introduce "Migaki Ichigo Kanet," a Japanese canned wine!
It is a canned sparkling wine made using the high-end strawberry brand "Migaki Ichigo" from Yamamoto Town, Miyagi Prefecture.
Migaki Ichigo is a luxurious strawberry that costs 1,000 yen per piece! I really want to try wine made from such strawberries.
The packaging is also stylish with a design featuring strawberries that look like diamonds♩
The price is 3,240 yen for a pack of four, which makes it 810 yen per bottle.

Finally, I would like to introduce "Petit Monteria." This is a slightly dry sparkling wine produced by Monde Sake Brewery. It features soft bubbles and a refreshing citrus aroma.
Some people enjoy it straight, while others use it in cooking♡
In addition to red and white, there is also a rosé with a pink package.
The price is 3,576 yen for a pack of 12, making it 298 yen per bottle, which is the most reasonable among the three types.
It seems that it can also be found at convenience stores.
