Our journey began last spring, when a stray calico cat stepped in and checked on us while we were sipping Umeshu under a sakura tree. 🌸 That magical, peaceful moment sparked a vision: to create a deck that captures the soul of Japanese beauty – adorable cats, serene moments, and of course, SAKE! 🍶🥳

“SAKE IS PROOF THAT GOD LOVES US AND WANTS US TO BE HAPPY” lol

Have you ever shuffled a deck of cards and felt like you were holding a piece of art? What if that art was inspired by the quiet elegance of Japan Sake and the mischievous charm of drinking cats? This is Sake Neko Classic deck! ⭐️ Unbox this classic deck like you’re opening a bottle of gold-label sake, with the full excitement and nobility! 🥰😎 The entire tuck box is fully engraved with golden foil, designed in the style of a premium Japanese sake “Gold Label Bottle“, complete with drinking Maneki-neko, beautiful Japanese calligraphy and sake arts! 🍶

Every card of the classic version is printed on premium 330gsm paper with a fun festive-orange foil on both sides that really pops. But we didn’t stop at beauty – we made it super helpful too! ⭐️🤩Think of each card as your friendly “SAKE 101 GUIDE“, packed with tips and know-how to help you dive into Japan Sake like a pro! 🤓🍶

Every number card shares cool tip and advice: some spotlight sake ingredients, best serving temperatures, others cover drinking etiquette, or the origin of sake rice; and a few explore those amazing tastes and aromas. Plus, the illustrations? They’re super adorable, blending playful cat vibes with the timeless charm of sake tradition. Can’t wait for you to check it out! 🐱🍶

Speaking of the court cards, each suit represents a season 🌸🌿 – reimagined with feline deities in kimonos, napping on Fusuma screens, or playing kemari under autumn maples. These court cards feature Bakeneko (spiritual cats in Japan myths) embodying the grace of geisha, the wisdom of monks, and the boldness of samurai. All cards are cold-foiled in festive shiny and colourful. So much fun, beauty and folklore packed in! 🐱🥰
