Cherry blossoms in Japan are considered peak spring. However, plum blossoms start to bloom in late winter around February, signifying the next season is on its way. There are also little flecks of snow around the blossom branches to symbolise this transitionary period. The bottle design is called ‘New Spring’ and will appeal to people who can't wait for the warmer weather to come back.
