In Japan,
there is a gift-giving custom called oseibo.
At the end of the year, people send gifts to parents, friends,
former teachers, or others who have helped them during the year.
One of the most popular oseibo gift items is Japanese sake.
People love to receive sake: it goes well with osechi, the traditional
New Year's food which many families enjoy at home.
Come December, department stores, supermarkets and liquor stores
are adorned with specially decorated gift sets of sake.
If youre interested in sake, you should definitely take a look
at our Oseibo Catalog, where youll find many popular sake gifts.
