There are three flavors: "sea salt" is made from salt produced at "Hyakusoan" in the Mukozugu area, and "jizake" is made from "Horebore," a local sake from Tawarayama. Nagato Yuzukichi is an original citrus fruit of Yamaguchi Prefecture.

This time, the product will be sold in limited quantities, and full-scale sales will start around the end of March next year.
The products will be sold at the venue during the summit and will also be used as souvenirs for participants.
