There are many seasonal products in Japan and very frequently, these products follow seasonal flavors. Peach season is upon us, so there are many peach-flavored products being introduced. (We are on the downside of strawberry season.)
This peach flavored Suntory chuhai is a good example. Chuhai is shochu, a Japanese distilled alcohol, mixed with a fruit juice usually, and sometimes another mixer. Chuhai are typically popular with females. サントリー チューハイ

Mercian, which is a Kirin company after a purchase several years ago, has introduced a wine called "every" which is meant for "everyday, everywhere, everyone", and they explain that it has an expensive taste at a reasonable price. They are holding a campaign where after clicking through several layers of age verification, you can spin an online roulette wheel to win a chance at free bottles. No purchase is required, but it is connected to either your Facebook or Twitter account limited to one spin a day (per account). メルシャン ワイン

Surprisingly, at least to me, 7-Eleven is opening its first stores, 3 simultaneously, in Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku, this month. Even though 7-Eleven seems to be on almost every corner in many parts of Japan and has more outlets here than in any other country, there is still virgin territory, entire prefectures, waiting for domination. セブンイレブン 愛媛県
