《Introducing a New Summer Limited Design for "Hoshifuri Ramune," Offering a Heart-Soothing, Fantastical Experience with a Fireworks Theme》

Since 2022, Kanro has been developing the "Amazing Kanro" series, which aims to provide "delicious, exciting experiences" by fully expressing the charm of candy through diverse flavors, textures, colors, shapes, and the joy of eating. The first product released in the Amazing Kanro series, "Hoshifuri Ramune," is a ramune inspired by a starry night sky with sparkling stars, as if a starry sky had fallen into candy form. Its charming, fantastical appearance and the "collecting the starry sky" concept have garnered support and popularity, particularly on social media.

While seasonal limited editions have been released and well-received in the past, this marks the first time in the series that two products with a fireworks motif, the summer-limited "Hoshifuri Ramune BOX SET Seisai no Yoizora" and "Hoshifuri Ramune 3-Bag Set Seisai no Yoizora," will be launched. The "Hoshifuri Ramune BOX SET Seisai no Yoizora" features a world where the lingering glow of fireworks blends into the summer night sky. It includes a limited-edition bottle with a gradient paint from orange to deep blue, one bag of ramune, and one ramune charm & tag. The ramune comes in two flavors common to the regular version: "Quiet Night Sky Midnight Soda Flavor" and "Sparkling Stars Healing Soda Flavor." Additionally, it includes two new flavors: a pink ramune, "Festive Soda Flavor Coloring the Night Sky," and a green ramune, "Refreshing Soda Flavor Unraveling in the Night Sky," for a total of four assorted flavors. The "Hoshifuri Ramune 3-Bag Set Seisai no Yoizora" includes three bags with different designs. Furthermore, to allow customers to enjoy the festive fireworks theme even before opening the box, the outer packaging has been redesigned to incorporate a mechanism for enjoying the fireworks coloring the summer night sky.

Enjoy these products, perfect as a treat to soothe your mind when you're feeling tired or down, or as a gift for loved ones. They are filled with a seasonal experience that allows you to feel the light of colorful fireworks and the lingering glow in the night sky.
