The wine bath features an enormous 3.6-meter-tall bottle. One may also get a chance to experience a special wine show, "in which staff members spray bathers with a bottle of Yunessun wine," according to the Japan National Tourism Organization. Visitors can also opt for baths with coffee, Japanese sake, and green tea. The wine, coffee and sake pools are indoors and have a " Mediterranean Sea theme," as per the website of the theme park.
