"Here, 40 for the 4th anniversary."

With those words, Sake no Daiso brought a whole bag full of cream puffs from Pâtisserie Bordeaux in Nishinomiya, Kobe, to kick off ANTELOPE's 4th anniversary party. It was the start of an event so touching it almost brought tears as big as those cream puffs to our eyes.

 



Beyond that, homemade tanuki, pachypodiums, honey, beeswax candles, and incredibly rare sake—all the world’s most delightful gifts seemed to have gathered at our factory. I, Yazawa, might kill my pachira plants, but how will I do with a pachypodium☘

Furthermore, the greatest gift of all was seeing everyone, whether it was your first time meeting us or we were seeing you again after a long while, looking so happy.

We had such an incredible time at the Superstition Meadery event we visited last November that, inspired by them, we decided to try doing a standing buffet with live music and all-you-can-drink mead.

We were excited to rank the tickets into Sho-Chiku-Bai (Pine, Bamboo, and Plum) tiers, but it wasn't until just three days ago that I realized I had the order of the tiers backward. I suppose that’s just like us—or just like me—so I let it slide.



Everything—the food, the music, and all of you who came—was simply "Very Good." It felt like a dream. The entire ANTELOPE team, who helped us from early in the morning, was also truly amazing. Being able to hear your thoughts while drinking mead with you in such a close, friendly atmosphere has left me full of motivation to work even harder tomorrow and beyond🧑‍🤝‍🧑



The tumbler we created to commemorate the anniversary is designed to help you feel the ANTELOPE vibe even on days you aren't drinking alcohol. It’s the perfect size for a Starbucks tall cup. It’s an all-purpose item that proves you can "create cuteness" in any situation. Please check it out🦾
