Limited-edition Quintessential Quintuplets drinks to be released in Japan

Nakano Sake Brewery has announced a collaboration with The Quintessential Quintuplets.

This collab will feature five distinct types of the brewery’s “Fruilia” fruit liqueur, each presented with an original label design inspired by one of the Nakano sisters, the central characters of the anime series.

These limited-edition liqueurs will be available exclusively through the Nakano Sake Brewery’s official online shop.

The new drinks feature the Nakano sisters on the label

The Quintessential Quintuplets is a popular romantic comedy manga series created by Negi Haruba, which follows the story of Futaro Uesugi, a bright high school student hired to tutor a set of identical quintuplet sisters – Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, and May – who are academically struggling and initially resistant to his efforts.

The manga was serialized in Weekly Shonen Magazine from 2017 to 2020 leading to multiple anime adaptations, including a television series and specials.

The new “Fruilia” liqueurs are inspired by the individual personalities and characteristics of each of the five Nakano sisters.

“Fruilia” is a product line of Nakano Sake Brewery characterized as a fruit liqueur with a rich, fruit-forward taste, akin to consuming fresh fruit.

Fruilia is available in a range of flavors

Each of the five “Fruilia” variants in this collaboration will feature a unique fruit flavor intended to resonate with the corresponding Nakano sister:

  • Nakano Ichika / “Hidden Feelings” Mikan Orange Flavor
  • Nakano Nino / “Stubborn Love” Grape Flavor
  • Nakano Miku / “No More Confusion” Green Apple Flavor
  • Nakano Yotsuba / “Full Support” Muscat Grape Flavor
  • Nakano Itsuki / “Secret Feelings” Strawberry Flavor

These fruit liqueurs have an alcohol content of 7%, which is relatively low for this kind of drink.

Adding to the collectible nature of this collaboration, each 720ml bottle of “Fruilia” will be packaged with a limited-edition label featuring artwork of the corresponding Nakano sister and will include a matching drinks stirrer with a display stand.

For fans wishing to experience all five flavors or collect all the character-themed items, a complete set of all five “Fruilia” liqueurs will be available in a special commemorative box, containing a total of 3600ml of liqueur (720ml per bottle).

Reservations for bottles of The Quintessential Quintuplets “Fruilia” will be available from Tuesday, April 1st through the Nakano Sake Brewery’s online shop.

Nakano Sake Brewery is promoting these collaborative “Fruilia” liqueurs as a fitting way for fans to celebrate the birthdays of their favorite characters, as delivery should take place from mid-April so they arrive before the May 5th birthday of the Nakano sisters.

The collaboration is inspired by the series most recent anime special

The individual bottles of “Fruilia” (720ml each) are priced at 4,400 yen (approx. $29.36 USD / £22.68 GBP).

The complete set of five “Fruilia” liqueurs in the special box is priced at 22,000 yen (approx. $146.80 USD / £113.40 GBP).

In all cases, shipping charges will be applied separately.

These are limited quantity products, and sales will stop once the available stock runs out.

Fans of The Quintessential Quintuplets are therefore advised to place their orders promptly to avoid disappointment.
