COLDRAW is a botanical brewing technology originated by Sober Experience Studio*. With the global sober curious movement, the demand for non-alcoholic beverages is expected to rise. However, in many cases, non-alcoholic beverages are mass-produced products found in cans and PET bottles containing sugar and additives. Sober Experience Studio developed the extraction technology COLDRAW as a solution to contribute to the improvement of the global environment and people’s health.

Shintaro Nishikawa, a director of Sober Experience Studio says “COLDRAW brings out the natural flavors of plants, allowing you to enjoy a delicious non-alcoholic beverage experience without sugar. By avoiding bottled products and focusing on freshly extracted drinks that suit specific needs and occasions, we can help reduce plastic and other waste. We are confident that the development of COLDRAW will contribute to the sustainability of the global environment.”
