MEET OUR MAKERS & CURATORS

Made from the heart,
from the Land of the Rising Sun.

Meet the people behind the deliciousness of each snack and those who are responsible for bringing you a taste of Japan.

Sourced in Japan &
shipped to you.

We wish to spread the love for Japan through not only snacks and gifts, but also with travel and cultural information about Japan through our monthly Omiyage Snack Box.

Working closely with local Japanese snack makers and suppliers, and curated by staff members of JR East, sit tight as we take you on a gastronomic journey to Japan.
