The Story Behind Yanak Craft Cola

Born in the iconic neighborhood of Yanaka, this craft cola emerged with a mission. Inspired by the founder's journey to improve a hyperhidrosis condition, the need for a refreshing beverage infused with easily-consumable spices led to the creation of Yanak Craft Cola. The name symbolizes not only the product itself but also the warmth and community spirit of the Yanaka area.

The design of the packaging encapsulates this connection, showcasing local landmarks like Yanaka Ginza and the enchanting sunset slope in its illustrations—inviting all to partake in the 'air of Yanaka.'

Introducing the Special Ginger Syrup

The special ginger syrup, crafted using traditional Edo-Tokyo vegetables, was developed as a result of the founder's personal journey with hyperhidrosis and a discovery of the region's ginger. With roots in local culinary traditions, it stands as an embodiment of Yanaka's community spirit and celebrates the legacy of Edo-era produce.

Yanak Craft Cola continues to expand in both variety and recognition. Since its initial launch in November 2023 with a 200ml bottle, the brand has introduced additional formats such as 350ml cans and 500ml pet bottles, focusing on quality and convenience. Their portability and readiness-to-drink nature have encouraged growth into various channels, including wellness and dining facilities.
