Shohei Ohtani's full comment on Itoen's "Oi Ocha"

To everyone who always supports us

Hello, I'm Shohei Otani.
We have recently signed a global contract with Ito En's "Oi Ocha."
I loved "Oi Ocha" and drank it often when I was in Japan, and it has become an important companion in my life in America as well.
I was very happy to hear that this contract came about because Ito En heard that I love "Oi Ocha" and drink it often.
As an "Oi Ocha" fan, I would be happy to convey the charms of "Oi Ocha" to people all over the world.

Shohei Ohtani
