I pretty much grab a few boxes every time I go to Japan. The mushroom top chocolate is smooth, and the biscuit base is kind of like a shortbread cookie. Overall, it has a nice layered texture.

Pabron
The “Pabron” brand of medicine, produced by Taisho Pharmaceuticals, is one of Japan’s most common cold medicines.
The small packets are super convenient. They’re easy to toss in your bag when traveling, so you don’t have to bring a whole box of medicine. Really practical when you suddenly start feeling unwell.

Smile 40 Premium THE ONE Series
Smile 40 Premium THE ONE is a series of eye drops that treat all of these symptoms with a single bottle: eye fatigue, blurred vision, bloodshot eyes, and itchiness. It is for people who struggle with symptoms such as “tired eyes,” “blurred vision,” “bloodshot eyes,” or “itchy eyes” due to long hours of computer or smartphone use.
This feels like a more premium version of eye drops. The moisturizing effect lasts longer than the regular kind, and after working late, using it makes my eyes feel like they’ve been rebooted.

Imayo Tsukasa Sake Brewery “Nishikigoi”
A sake inspired by Nishikigoi koi, now a major global trend as ornamental fish. The bottle, designed with a pattern of koi gracefully swimming through water, is especially striking and hugely popular as a gift. The crisp vermilion pattern on a white body makes a bold impression. Display it in the included carton with a fish-shaped window, and it feels like you’re admiring a real Nishikigoi koi.
This was my first time seeing a sake bottle designed like a Nishikigoi koi. The bottle design is truly distinctive and has that refined Japanese artisan aesthetic. The quality feels even more detailed than I expected. It’s not just beautiful—it also makes a great gift, and it works perfectly as a home decoration too.
