HARIO Launches Two New Aya Series Designs of Its Wine Bottle-Shaped Cold Brew Tea Bottle in the U.S. Market
HARIO Co., Ltd., a leading Japanese manufacturer of heatproof glass products and specialty coffee equipment, has announced the U.S. launch of two new designs of its Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle under the Aya Series. The new designs combine traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern functionality, offering consumers an elegant way to prepare, serve, and enjoy cold-brewed tea.
The Aya Series builds on HARIO’s original Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle, which features a removable strainer and a distinctive wine-bottle silhouette. The latest versions introduce two Japanese-inspired patterns, Cherry Blossom Blizzard and Wisteria, designed to bring a refined appearance to everyday tea preparation and dining experiences.
The two new designs became available to U.S. consumers on September 24 through HARIO’s global website. The bottles are intended to transform cold-brew tea from a simple everyday beverage into a visually appealing part of the dining experience, allowing consumers to serve tea at the table in a style similar to wine.

Bringing Japanese Design to Cold-Brew Tea
Cold-brewed beverages have gained popularity among consumers seeking refreshing drinks with a smooth and balanced flavor. Cold brewing involves steeping tea leaves in cold water over an extended period, producing a beverage that can have a less bitter taste than tea prepared with hot water.
Despite the growing popularity of cold-brew tea, conventional bottles have often prioritized practical functionality over visual presentation. Many products are designed primarily for kitchen use and may lack the refined appearance associated with traditional tableware.
HARIO developed its Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle to address this gap by combining practical brewing functionality with a sophisticated design.
The original bottle features a slender wine-bottle profile that allows consumers to prepare and serve cold-brew tea in a more elegant way. The design aims to make the beverage suitable for both casual daily use and formal dining occasions.
With the introduction of the Aya Series, HARIO is expanding this concept by incorporating traditional Japanese patterns that add a distinctive decorative element to the bottle.
Two New Japanese-Inspired Designs
The Aya Series Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle is available in two designs inspired by traditional Japanese aesthetics.
Cherry Blossom Blizzard
The Cherry Blossom Blizzard design draws inspiration from the beauty of cherry blossoms, an enduring symbol in Japanese culture. The pattern introduces a decorative element that complements the bottle’s minimalist silhouette while maintaining an elegant appearance.
The design is intended to bring a subtle sense of Japanese artistry to everyday tea preparation and serving.
Wisteria
The Wisteria design takes inspiration from the wisteria flower, known for its graceful appearance and flowing floral forms.
The pattern adds visual character to the bottle while preserving the understated aesthetic associated with the Aya Series. Together, the two designs offer consumers different ways to incorporate Japanese-inspired decoration into their dining spaces.
Both versions are designed to make the tea bottle an attractive addition to the dining table, allowing the beverage itself to remain the visual focus.
Functional Design and Heatproof Glass Construction
HARIO’s Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle combines its distinctive appearance with materials and features designed for convenient everyday use.
The bottle is made from HARIO Glass®, the company’s proprietary heatproof glass manufactured in Japan. The material is designed to preserve the clarity and purity of the beverage’s flavor while providing a transparent view of the tea.
The bottle includes a polypropylene strainer that allows tea leaves to steep directly in the water. The removable design makes it easier to clean after use and helps minimize the effort required to remove tea residue.
The strainer is positioned discreetly beneath the lid rather than inside the main body of the bottle. This arrangement keeps the brewing component largely out of sight and allows the tea and decorative patterns to remain prominent.
The bottle’s wine-inspired shape also supports its presentation as tableware rather than simply as a kitchen storage container.
Through this combination of functional features and visual design, HARIO aims to make cold-brew tea preparation more convenient while creating a refined serving experience.
Aya Series Combines Traditional Japanese Aesthetics With Modern Minimalism
The Aya Series is HARIO’s lifestyle collection, bringing together traditional Japanese design principles and contemporary minimalism.
First introduced internationally in October 2025, the collection was developed to introduce calmness, clarity, and understated beauty into everyday living.
The series is guided by three core aesthetic concepts: Irodori, Yohaku, and Zeitaku.
Irodori emphasizes artistic vibrance and the introduction of color and visual interest into daily life.
Yohaku focuses on openness and simplicity, leaving room for individual interpretation and appreciation of subtle design details.
Zeitaku encourages a lifestyle that values time, atmosphere, and quiet refinement, highlighting the importance of creating meaningful everyday experiences.
Together, these principles shape the Aya Series’ approach to combining functional household products with understated decorative appeal.
In the United States, the Aya collection already includes V60 pour-over coffee sets, drippers, servers, and glasses. The addition of the Cold Brew Tea Wine Bottle expands the collection into cold-brew tea preparation and serving.
The new Cherry Blossom Blizzard and Wisteria designs extend the collection’s Japanese-inspired visual identity to another category of beverage equipment.
