"Coca-Cola" Slim Bottle Niigata design launched on October 1, 2018 has been redeployed due to popular demand.
The bottle is a limited edition only obtained in this region and designed with iconic illustrations of "Bandai Bridge" – an important cultural property that crosses Japan's largest Shinano River with nearly 200 years of history and tradition, "Niigata Geigi" of Niigata Furumachi – one of Japan's most famous geisha quarters along with Kyoto's Gion and Tokyo's Shimbashi, and the willow – the tree of Niigata City also known as the "Willow City" due to the willows planted along the moat, which was built up to the 1950s around central Niigatajima on the left bank of Shinano River.
This product can be purchased at souvenir shops and local product stores in Niigata Prefecture.
