Umibe no Shuppansha is aiming to publish the book "Hokkaido Wine" (authored by Sayuri Arai) through crowdfunding.
The deadline is Thursday, January 26 at 17:00.
The book is slated to become the ultimate "Hokkaido wine book" by Sayuri Arai, a living encyclopedia of the wine world.
Here are the details.
About Sayuri Arai
Sayuri Arai is originally from Yokohama and currently resides in Sapporo.
Having been engaged in promoting Japanese wine for over 20 years, she is known as a living encyclopedia of the wine world.
Familiar with every single winery in Hokkaido, she boasts outstanding name recognition among wine enthusiasts.
She is an "expert" in the wine world who is almost invariably sought after for comments in special feature articles on Hokkaido wine.
About the Book
In this joint initiative with Ms. Arai, Umibe no Shuppansha is planning via crowdfunding to publish "A Book to Understand the Forefront and Everything About Hokkaido Wine," putting the spotlight on its history, the figures behind the wineries, and the latest trends regarding Hokkaido wine, which is now attracting attention for being of world-class standards.
It is widely recognized that the history of Hokkaido wine—carved out by Ms. Arai's vast knowledge and experience as well as her tremendous relationships of trust with winery owners—is something no one else could tell.
It is packed with rare information that can never be found on the internet, and the winery scenes and private shots with winemakers accumulated by Ms. Arai over many years are valuable assets that can only be seen in this book.
The target amount for this publishing project is 3,000,000 yen.
The return tiers are summarized below.
・1 copy of the book and a thank-you email: 3,000 yen
・Name listed in the book: 10,000 yen
・Ultra-rare wine and book set: 17,000 yen
・Online party with wine included: 35,000 yen, etc.
Whether you are interested in Hokkaido wine or are a fan of Japanese wine, why not consider supporting the project?
