Our cider is made with whole, preservative and wax-free Hiroshima Lemons (peel and all!) grown in the sunshine of the temperate Setouchi region; each bottle has the equivalent of one lemon’s worth of juice. We’ve also added the perfect pinch of Amabito no Moshio (sea salt), a specialty product of Hiroshima, to make the fresh lemon flavor really pop. With a sparkling golden package design, this is a uniquely Hiroshima soft drink full of the refreshing fragrance and mellow tang of Hiroshima Lemons. (Low calorie, lightly sweetened)

Yamato Ramune Soda

A traditional soda enjoyed by the Navy and the town of Kure

Nakamoto Honten has long been a favorite of the Japanese navy and the town of Kure, and Yamato Ramune is the revival of the Ramune of the Former Kure Navy, which was brought back to celebrate the opening of the Yamato Museum. Our company manufactures its ramune under the direction of the former Kure navy; a ramune manufacturing machine was actually on board the battleship Yamato while she was in the service, and ramune was enjoyed as a refreshing beverage by her crew. At the time, our company was also appointed as the official ramune manufacturer and ramune director for the navy. Enjoy the wonderful fragrance and refreshing sweetness of this historical soda.
