Far Yeast Brewing (headquartered in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi Prefecture; Shiro Yamada, President; hereinafter referred to as “the Company”), in collaboration with Studio Hatake no Mae, NPO Tama Genryu Kosuge, and Chuo University, has created wooden beer glasses “Kai” and “Scales” utilizing Japanese cypress from Kosuge Village, Yamanashi Prefecture.

This product was developed as part of the “Social Entrepreneurship Program,” a class to learn product development utilizing local resources at Chuo University, and was planned and developed by university students. Staff from the NPO Tama Genryu Kosuge serve as guest lecturers for the class, teaching the students about Kosuge Village resources and product development know-how. Each product is handcrafted by Studio Hatake’s former artisans living in Kosuge Village and is designed to enhance the experience of Far Yeast Brewing’s craft beers and spirits.

Features of the wooden beer glass

1. a higher grade of evening drinking experience with the warmth of nature
This product is a beer glass that keeps beer bubbling beautifully thanks to the insulation and smooth surface of cypress, and allows you to feel the gentle warmth of the wood every time you drink. The thick drinking spout is designed to allow you to feel the presence of the wood, and is a gem that will elevate your daily evening drinking to a special time.

2. A sustainable product created by Kosuge Village cypress and craftsmanship
The cypress used in this product is a wood that was cut down to provide shade, and until now it has been difficult to find value in it. By reusing the wood and carefully processing it by craftsmen in Kosuge Village, we have created an environmentally friendly beer glass that is full of the charm of local craftsmanship. Along with the aroma of the wood, this product allows you to feel the nature and craftsmanship of Kosuge Village.

3. One-of-a-kind, personalized glass
The grain of the wood is never the same, and each glass has a different expression. In addition, the lot number is engraved on the glass, making it an item that will grow into a unique and valuable item over time. We also offer made-to-order engraving of the customer’s name, anniversary date, or any other text of your choice to create a special drink.
