"MiseMedia" is an experiential media that appeals to the five senses of restaurant patrons by installing large displays such as projectors within restaurants, using large-screen visuals to appeal to sight, and extending to customer service and menu offerings. In recent years, information transmission to new customers has become a challenge due to the filter bubble phenomenon, where information is selectively filtered. Furthermore, opportunities for tasting in public spaces and conveying the appeal of regional specialty products through real experiences are also decreasing. To address these challenges faced by companies and local governments in conducting promotions, GurunaVi and Epson jointly developed "MiseMedia."

The details of the promotion starting June 29, 2026 (Mon) are as follows:

【Participating Company】

・Sanwa Shurui Co., Ltd.

Sanwa Shurui Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive brewing company that handles a wide range of fermentation-related manufacturing, including the well-known authentic barley shochu "Iichiko," as well as authentic shochu, Japanese sake, wine, brandy, liqueurs, spirits, and low-malt beer, in addition to food ingredients made from barley fermentation liquid produced during the barley shochu manufacturing process.
